Case: Disability Discrimination/Medical Examinations (D. Neb.)

A Nebraska federal district court granted Union Pacific Railroad Co.'s motion for protective order in an Americans with Disabilities Act case brought by a plaintiff with alleged disabilities related to color vision testing, barring EEOC attorneys from attending depositions in the case, finding that the presence of non-party EEOC attorneys could constitute annoyance, harassment, or oppression sufficient to justify a protective order, and noting that EEOC could still obtain information by reviewing deposition transcripts or videotapes.
