Subject: [blindLaw] Help with my ADA/home touch screen appliances Journal
 Note.
Message-ID: <CAKM5H_29QSygZcm0VbRPzih9D7A3vGYiqZsf=aWC3_nD5hWehw@mail.gmail.com>

Dear all,
I am planning on writing my journal note on the
generally inaccessible touch screened at home appliances or machines, such
as exercise machines, health care machines and appliances.
I looked at the bill introduced in the house in 2019, but that bill died.
Can we use the ADA to argue that the machines and appliances, although for
private use, are sold to the public, and thus should be considered to be
public use, Or and, that the constant use and reliance of the internet
keeps them in the public use. Like the websites of physical stores.

Dead Bill that brought the idea:
https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/3929/text

I am only using the bill as my inspiration, but if we can use existing law
to make the makers of the products add accessibility within design that
would be great.

Also, who is an ADA expert. Because I need a little teaching on:
*section 1218(b)(1)**(E) Association. It shall be discriminatory to exclude
or otherwise deny equal goods, services, facilities, privileges,
advantages, **accommodations**, or other opportunities to an individual or
entity because of the known disability of an individual with whom the
individual or entity is known to have a relationship or association.*

If blind people cook, get sick, and exercise especially at home during a
worldwide pandemic and after that, It is reasonable to assume that a
relationship exists between a blind person and the makers of the machines.
Further, if blind people have been cooking, getting sick and exercising at
home , but using older machines made by the same company, then we sure have
a relationship and the newer machines should be made accessible out of the
box, due to our relationship.

*Argument against my arguments: *
Yes, blind individuals have been using our older products but we did not
make them accessible. The nobs and buttons were modified by each individual
with their adhesive dots. We were not really building a relationship. And
the products were not aimed for blind individuals.

Enforcement?
amending the ADA by adding announcing remedies with statutory remedies.
Used in  Fair and Accurate Credit Trans­actions Act and the Right to
Financial Privacy Act
see pages 780-786 on the attached doc.
Pre-commitment section and the fist part of Summary.

Any help, comments and criticisms are very much welcomed.

Warmly,

What about places of a public accommodation who use set appliances. Kitchens in the workplace, laundromats, Airbnb‘s?

I'm aware of one blind judge in the UK: HHJ Fayyaz Afzal OBE is a Circuit
Judge, Midland Circuit (Derby).

https://www.judiciary.uk/announcements/circuit-judge-appointment-afzal-obe/

I don't have his contact info, though, and I'm not aware of any UK
equivalent to this list.


FWIW, I've been very strongly considering applying to become a magistrate
myself, in East London.

I've wanted to talk to a blind judge, and a UK judge, to get advice on
issues particular to being blind in the judiciary (and some difficult
matters about the UK's judicial system). I've never been in a public facing
role like that before, and it's hard for me to guess how colleagues,
counsel, or defendants might respond. Though I've externed for a 9th Cir.
judge, I never dealt with criminal cases (let alone had personal
decision-making authority); I have questions about how to do it in a way
that is actually effective.

(UK magistrates, aka justices of the peace / JPs, are very roughly
equivalent to a US city low level criminal judge in scope of authority.
They handle the equivalent of infractions & misdemeanors — "summary
offences" — for trial & sentencing, and arraignments, bail, & warrants for
all cases. Most of that is done on a 3-magistrate panel, and with a legal
advisor / clerk.

East London covers about 1.2 million people with the two courts where I'd
be working, with I think about 200 JPs. Minimum 18 days per year of
service. Unpaid position, only minor reimbursements for travel & food. No
legal background required. Sub-courts for family & juvenile cases.)

Sincerely,
Sai

Hello there fellow Legal Beagles!

I was wondering if anyone knows of any important writers/thinkers from the various major schools of legal thought worth brushing up on and getting to know better? I am looking for names to look up as well as any of their major lectures or landmark decisions they may have passed as well as any lengthy books they may have published on the field of jurisprudence. I am looking for both those who laid the foundation for their school as well as those who continue to carry out its legacy both in practice and personal lives.

Thanks!
Tom

The United States Department of Labor (DOL), Office of the Solicitor seeks
graduating law students who will graduate from law school between October 1,
2021 and September 30, 2022 and recent law school graduates who began
participating and continue to be employed in eligibility preserving
employment within 9 months of law school graduation. Eligibility preserving
employment includes full-time activities starting after law school
graduation that can preserve a law school graduate's eligibility for the
Honors Program such as judicial clerkships or time-limited court staff
attorney positions; federal agency or state government Honors Attorney
programs; or legal fellowships.   We are recruiting at the GS-11 thru 14

The Honors Program in the Office of the Solicitor provides challenging
professional opportunities for outstanding law school graduates. Honors
Attorneys work with the various client agencies within the Department of
Labor, gaining exposure to a broad range of substantive legal work in one of
the government's preeminent legal offices. Upon completion of the two-year
program, Honors Program Attorneys continue their careers in public service
in one of SOL's offices. Our website is:  Honors Program | U.S. Department

I am so excited to be writing several research papers this semester,
I am writing one on the loopholes in the Fair Housing Act as to Service
dogs and Emotional Support Animals.
And I am particularly happy with my first footnote. So I had to share.

Hello everyone!!!

I was wondering if there were any other blind lawyers or blind law school
student out there who is struggling with the bluebook (more so with the
online version)and citations like myself? There are hundreds of resources on
this topic, but none of them are tailored for nonsighted users. Thank you so
much!

Federal Jobs Program Moves To End Subminimum Wage
By Michelle Diament
Disability Scoop
October 22, 2021

A massive program that puts people with disabilities to work through federal government contracts across the country plans to no longer allow workers to be paid less than minimum wage.
The U.S. AbilityOne Commission issued a proposed rule this month barring any new contracts under the AbilityOne Program that pay people with disabilities what's known as subminimum wage.
The program, which dates back 83 years, directs federal contracts to a network of nearly 500 nonprofits that provide products and services for the government. Over 42,000 people who are blind or have significant disabilities are employed through AbilityOne at over 1,000 locations nationwide including dozens of government agencies and military facilities. In fiscal year 2020 alone, AbilityOne provided nearly $4 billion in goods and services to the government.
Under the proposal, people employed through AbilityOne contracts would have to be paid at least the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. However, many jobs would actually pay more due to higher local minimum wages or federal pay requirements for certain types of jobs, according to officials with the AbilityOne Commission, an independent federal agency that administers the program.
The rule would apply to new contracts as well as those that are extended or renewed.
The move to end subminimum wage within the AbilityOne program is years in the making. In 2016, the AbilityOne Commission issued a declaration calling for all participating nonprofits to commit to paying at least minimum wage. At the time, the commission indicated that 90% of those employed through the program were already earning at least that much.
In 2019, the commission took another step by asking SourceAmerica - one of two central nonprofits that facilitate the relationship between participating nonprofits and the government - to remove payment of subminimum wage from all AbilityOne contracts within three years.
The AbilityOne Commission says that all of the nonprofits working with its other central nonprofit, National Industries for the Blind, already pay at least the prevailing minimum wage on AbilityOne contracts.
"Moving from a voluntary process of ending payment of subminimum wage to a mandatory requirement is a significant step," said Chai Feldblum, vice chairperson of the AbilityOne Commission. "Wages paid for work send a message of how that work is valued and the work performed by people with disabilities should be valued equally with others. At the same time, we are committed to addressing all issues that may arise as a result of this requirement and we therefore look forward to receiving public comments as part of the rulemaking process."
The proposal comes as the AbilityOne Program has faced criticism for being outdated. A 2020 report from the National Council on Disability, an independent federal agency, called for the program to end, arguing that it promotes segregation and is not increasing employment opportunities for people with disabilities.
Meanwhile, California and Delaware are among the latest states to join a growing list in phasing out subminimum wage and President Joe Biden has thrown his support behind ending the practice. An executive order Biden signed earlier this year, which will apply to many AbilityOne contracts, requires federal contractors to pay at least $15 per hour to those employed through new contracts starting next year.
The proposed rule from AbilityOne is up for public comment through Nov. 12.

Hey Yall,



My apologies for taking a few days in getting back to this. Attached,
please find a quick cheat sheet for Bluebooking. Some personal tips as
well. I’ll often google the case or put it into west law and start with a
standard citation and make my bluebook tweaks. I’ve found that to be much
easier than making my own from scratch. West law will provide you with a
standard citation for every case under the sun. Also, if the research
project is one that has been assigned to the whole class, I’ll also see how
my friends cited the cases, if we’re working in a closed case environment.
Finally, there is an online bluebook, which is generally accessible, just
not the more intuitive thing, especially for us newbies.



I hope this helps and I also hope that me sharing this doesn’t bother the
publishers of the bluebook.



Syed

NP! Thank you! Does this cheat sheet include all the rules on proper punctuations? Because NVDA doesn’t pickup all the punctuations unless I toggle it to read all the punctuations. By the way, are you on campus in Cambridge right now?

Hmm. Punctuations and exact formatting can get so tough for us blind folks. In my pathetic attempt to overcome this peccadillo, I scoured all over the internet. To Only find an automatic citation generator. It seems pretty legit, but I don’t think it helps us with punctuations. the link is Bluebook Citation Generator _ CiteThis.html.is it Head of the Charles season?

Hey Yall,



My apologies for taking a few days in getting back to this. Attached, please find a quick cheat sheet for Bluebooking. Some personal tips as well. I’ll often google the case or put it into west law and start with a standard citation and make my bluebook tweaks. I’ve found that to be much easier than making my own from scratch. West law will provide you with a standard citation for every case under the sun. Also, if the research project is one that has been assigned to the whole class, I’ll also see how my friends cited the cases, if we’re working in a closed case environment.
Finally, there is an online bluebook, which is generally accessible, just not the more intuitive thing, especially for us newbies.



I hope this helps and I also hope that me sharing this doesn’t bother the publishers of the bluebook.



Syed

The only way to master it is to do it.  It's not going anywhere
anytime soon.  So unfortunately, plan to carve out a Saturday or two
to commit this all to memory the best you can.

Thank you Syed. I was trained to use the ALWD so it is nice to have references for Bluebook.

Hey Yall,



My apologies for taking a few days in getting back to this. Attached,
please find a quick cheat sheet for Bluebooking. Some personal tips as
well. I’ll often google the case or put it into west law and start with a
standard citation and make my bluebook tweaks. I’ve found that to be much
easier than making my own from scratch. West law will provide you with a
standard citation for every case under the sun. Also, if the research
project is one that has been assigned to the whole class, I’ll also see how
my friends cited the cases, if we’re working in a closed case environment.
Finally, there is an online bluebook, which is generally accessible, just
not the more intuitive thing, especially for us newbies.



I hope this helps and I also hope that me sharing this doesn’t bother the
publishers of the bluebook.



Syed

Hello all,

Has anyone here worked in the editorial board of a law journal before?
I have recently joined as an Associate Editor to Penn Asian Law
Review. Apart from other things, the work primarily entails finding
sources and correcting citations.

Although I have been managing Bluebook citations for my articles and
memos, checking/ correcting citations for journal submissions is not
particularly easy it seems.

Has anyone successfully tried some of this stuff before? Any
accessibility hacks/ tips to manage the work would be immensely
helpful.

Best,
Maitreya.

Hey Guys, I am going to be a lawyer this time next year. I do not know, 
if I am going to work for a firm or start my own. I currently work at a 
solo practitioner in Florida. What is the best and secure way to manage 
your calendar? What software will allow me to allow my potential clients 
to see my availability and make an appointment?  What software or 
program can you recommend? What on-line software is the best to use when 
taking payments over the telephone with a a screen reader?


Sincerely,


Roderick Thomas

Hi,

Really wonderful questions! I'll be learning, too.
I like connecting a calendar to Outlook via Google. I also like using the Calendar on my iPhone and syncing it with other devices such as my Mac.
As for the other questions I will learn the answers along with you!

Kindly,

Vaughn

"What on-line software is the best to use when taking payments over the

I believe this will depend on your kind of set up!  With new emergent
technologies in tow, you shouldn't need to tinker way too much with anything
online or even computer-based screen readers!  Of course, you will need to
install apps on your PREFERRED TECH TOY'S chosen platform.  For example, you
CAN ACCEPT payments via CashApp or Zelle; Zelle, if supported by your bank,
is free.  CashApp which comes from Square, Inc. does charge a transaction
fee to send the funds to a designated business bank account.  And, don't
forget, Paypal is STILL YOUR FRIEND!  For business purposes via Paypal
though, you may wish to setup a MERCHANT ACCOUNT.  There are so many ONLINE
MERCHANT SERVICE PROVIDERS to choose from; Square is the most popular!  Many
will charge discount and transaction fees, as well as monthly service fees!
Square and its related cousins only charge a discount fee typically between
2.65% to 2.75%; if you KEY-IN A CARD NUMBER though, the charge goes up to
3.25%.  These charges can be FACTORED INTO YOUR FINAL ASKING PRICE from a
customer, or, as most airlines do, you can assess them separately.  Keep in
mind that many customers WILL BALK at the idea of having these fees assessed
separately, but it's absolutely legal to do so. 

For scheduling appointments, please take a good look at Square Appointments;

Also, Calendly might be equal to the task for setting appointments; read

splendid day!!
