What's to sue for?

I could understand asking the state/local disabilities organization to get involved, request retraining for the supervisor, and do random compliance checks, but sue?

The damages were what, exactly?

Violations on federal and state laws are steep. Also punitive damages are easily met as they have not allowed a disabled person to shop... They would get hit from both state/federal violations and private under the same charge.. No kidding!

[Lady's Human]

They DID allow the disabled person to shop. Being that there were no monetary damages, where's the lawsuit?

If there were punitive actions to be taken that would be up to the state/federal enforcement agency, not a lawsuit in civil court.
