Thank you Christopher,

I know the case has been going through the courts for some time, but did not recall the actual chronology.

Best,

Subject: Re: [VICUG-L] FW: [AZ-Chat] Domino's Wants to Slice Away at the Americans With Disabilities Act



In 2016 a district court found in favor of Domino's and said that a blind person could not sue to make a web site accessible. In 2018 this decision was over turned by the Ninth Court of Appeals who found against Dominos. Today the supreme Court chose not to hear this case which means that the decision by the Ninth Court of appeals against Domino's stands.

Am I dreaming? As to Terri's point, I'd agree except that expecting any improvements in federal regulations concerning people with disabilities in the current political climate is a pipe dream. Frankly it is moving the other direction again.
