Oaklandish LLC Is Sued For Inaccessible Site But Says It Complies With ADA Dec 8 Report

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell book
BBC - Honduras - CIA Trial book - NY Mag

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 21 – Valerie Dicks, a blind woman, sued Oaklandish, LLC under the ADA for allegedly having an inaccessible website. 

  On November 17, 2022, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Judge James L. Cott held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it. 

 The defense lawyer said he had gotten an expert's report that there was nothing non-compliant about the website. Judge Cott asked plaintiff's counsel if they'd gotten the report. Only recently, was the answer.  

Judge Cott asked for a report-back by December 8 if a resolution had been reached. If not, he will refer the matter to the Court's Mediation Program. In the EDNY, it's beginning to be said that the ADA does not apply to websites.

This case is Dicks v. Oaklandish, LLC, 22-cv-6447 (Furman / Cott)
