[blindlaw] LSAC Held in Contempt of Consent Decree Regarding Accommodations

[Sai]

Thanks for posting this. My thanks & congratulations to everyone
involved in getting & enforcing the injunction.

I've attached the actual order, together with all the briefs about the
motion to hold in contempt (including the AFB et al* amicus).

I've run them all through Adobe Acrobat OCR, since several were inaccessible.

I haven't included the exhibits, nor the motion in limine about
striking the ADA monitor's report, but can get them if anyone's
interested.


All the docs I have on it, including these, are publicly available
here: <https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzmetJxi-p0VaG9NekJvb2FuUFE>.

That folder is more memorably reached at: <https://s.ai/archive> >
issues > disability > ada and rehab act > case law > DFEH v LSAC.


FWIW, I have a personal matter closely related to this on which I need
pro bono appellate litigation counsel.

If anyone's willing to help (or if you know someone who may be),
please contact me offlist at my personal email, <legal at s.ai>.

Sincerely,
Sai
President, Fiat Fiendum, Inc.
