Supreme Court Weighs Limiting Disability Rights Lawsuits By "Testers" Who Don't Plan To Use Services
- A disabled activist filed hundreds of ADA lawsuits against hotels lacking accessibility details online.
- The Supreme Court is considering if she has standing to sue without intending to stay at the hotels.
- A ruling for the hotel could limit "testers'" ability to identify discrimination in various areas.
- Some argue abuses by "testers" have burdened small businesses with costly legal proceedings.
- A decision limiting standing may weaken enforcement of the ADA and other civil rights laws.
