Case: Disability Discrimination/Failure To Accommodate (7th Cir.)

The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the district court’s grant of summary judgment for the Department of Homeland Security on Rehabilitation Act claims by an immigration officer with head and back injuries who alleged failure to accommodate his disability and hostile work environment, ruling the claims were unexhausted due to untimely administrative filings and failed on merits because he couldn’t perform essential job functions and lacked evidence of severe harassment.
