Commission on Human Rights & Opportunities ex rel. Pizzoferrato v. Mansions, LLC

Summary

The court affirmed the Appellate Court's reversal of the trial judgment because the trial court found only that Wendy was regarded as having a disability, which the commission conceded was insufficient to support a failure-to-accommodate claim. It rejected the Appellate Court's inference that the trial court had also found that Wendy had a record of a disability and vacated the Appellate Court's discussion of that issue and of the necessity standard. The court did not decide whether a person regarded as disabled may ever be entitled to a reasonable accommodation.
