In Website Access ADA Case in SDNY Bloomberg Cites EDNY Newsday Decision

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC-Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN NY Mag

SDNY COURTHOUSE, June 26 – In one in a series of website inaccessibility cases under the ADA, Jose Quezada sued Bloomberg, L.P. for hindering him as a visually impair person from purchasing its market analysis newsletter and digital subscription.

   On June 24, 2022 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Edgardo Ramos held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it. 

Bloomberg's counsel pointed Judge Ramos to the EDNY decision in Winegard v. Newsday LCC (556 F. Supp 3d 173 (Aug 16, 2021)) holding that "the text of the ADA's definition of 'public accommodation' clearly refers to physical places, and does not include stand-alone website."

If followed, it will knock out many cases in SDNY and other Federal courts. 

 Judge Ramos gave Bloomberg leave to file a motion to dismiss by July 15.

The case is Quezada v. Bloomberg L.P., 21-cv-1410 (Ramos)
