SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 27 – Il Valentino
Restaurant at 1076 First
Avenue was sued for violating
the Americans with
Disabilities Act. Then it
closed and lost its
lease.
Still, it
was urged on July 10 to U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Lewis J. Liman, the case
should survive against the
landlord.
Recent ADA
restaurant decisions by SDNY
Chief Judge Colleen McMahon
and Judge Lorna G. Schofield
were cited.
Judge
Liman said he would issues an
order dismissing Il Valentino
but the case will apparently
go forward.
It is Velasquez
v. IL Valentino Restaurant
Inc. et al., 18-cv-6988
(Liman)
