A.  There have been many challenges in the courts dealing with discrimination against persons with disabilities. Research any one of the Supreme Court Rulings or other legal case, and in your own words (no cut and paste, please) provide a brief summary of the case and its outcome.

How does his case illustrate the points about disability we have covered thus far?
