Case: Disability Discrimination/Retaliation (E.D. Ark.)

A federal district court denied the Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas’s motion to dismiss retaliation, discrimination, and hostile work environment claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act of an instructor with rheumatoid arthritis who alleged a series of adverse employment actions—including a change in her schedule—in retaliation for accommodation requests and due to her disabilities, finding that she alleged enough to overcome dismissal.
