a Statement of Interest </a>in private litigation pending in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Florida, David New v. Lucky Brand
Jeans. In that case, plaintiff has alleged an ADA violation based on
Lucky Brand Jeans’ use of touch-screen point-of-sale devices that do not allow
individuals who are blind to independently enter their private personal
identification number when making an in-store purchase using a debit
card. Among other things, the Department's Statement of Interest
addresses the proper framework for evaluating the title III ADA claim at issue
in this case.</span></font><span lang=EN><o:p></o:p></span></p>
