United States Fifth Circuit

Assuming that a non-disabled plaintiff could bring a claim under the ADA, 42 U.S.C. section 12112(d), for denial of an application for employment as a pipefitter solely on the basis of his failure to satisfy a lifting requirement, his claim fails where he failed to rebut evidence that the requirement was job-related.
