United States First Circuit

In this case, plaintiff Equal Employment Opportunity Commission asserts that defendant department store refused to provide a former employee with reasonable accommodations in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and that, by failing to comply with the ADA, defendant constructively discharged its employee. Summary judgment in favor of defendant on both claims is affirmed, where defendant offered its former employee multiple opportunities to discuss reasonable accommodations, and so the facts, even when read in plaintiff's favor, substantiate neither a claim for ADA discrimination nor a claim for constructive discharge.
