United States First Circuit

In a labor and employment action, alleging that defendants discharged plaintiff in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act after she developed diabetic retinopathy, the district court's grant of summary judgment to defendants is affirmed where: 1) plaintiff has not proven that defendants' failure to grant her an accommodation constituted constructive discharge; and 2) plaintiff's failure to submit required paperwork for the renewal of her contract constituted a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for refusing to rehire her.
