Second Circuit Review: Individuals Not Subject to Suit Under ADA’s Anti-Retaliation Provision
May 27, 2010
Litigation partners Marty Flumenbaum and Brad Karp's Second Circuit Review column appeared in the May 26 issue of the New York Law Journal. The article discusses Spiegel v. Schulmann, in which the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed a decision by the District Court for the Eastern District of New York holding that there was no basis for individual liability in employment-related retaliation claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act, but remanded for a determination as to whether obesity is a disability under the New York City Human Rights Law. Litigation associate David Berman assisted in the preparation of this column.
