Yasmin has successfully worked for the county government for many years.  When the county moved her department to new technology, they refused to consider accessibility even though they knew she was working there and even though there is an accessible version of the technology.

The address is U.S. District Court, 6500 Cherrywood Lane, #300, Greenbelt, MD 20770, Courtroom A.  The court session will go to about 4:00 or 4:30.  It is crucial to have a big showing on this first day.  I am asking people to come from all over the state. I am sure that representatives from our Sligo Creek and National Harbor chapters will take turns and attend the whole trial starting on February 10.  I will let you know when there are other crucial days when larger crowds are needed.
