United States DC Circuit

In an action against the Secret Service claiming that it violated the Rehabilitation Act by retaliating against plaintiff for filing a discrimination complaint and by failing to reasonably accommodate her disability, summary judgment for defendant is affirmed in part where there was no genuine dispute that the Service reasonably accommodated plaintiff's disability. However, the ruling is reversed in part on the ground that the retaliatory actions plaintiff alleged might well have dissuaded a reasonable person from engaging in protected activity.
