Case: Disability Discrimination/Disparate Treatment (E.D. Mich.)

A Michigan federal court granted summary judgment to the city of Detroit on the claims of a police officer with a permanent injury disability that he faced disparate treatment, and retaliation for requesting disability accommodation, in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, ruling that the officer wasn’t a qualified individual, that no reasonable accommodation would allow him to perform his duties, and that there was no causal connection between his requests and change in status.
