  • Seventh Circuit: The court clarified that the “common actor” inference is not a conclusive presumption and should be considered by the ultimate trier of fact rather than on summary judgment or the pleadings
  • Ninth Circuit: The court joined the Tenth and Eleventh Circuits in allowing tester standing under Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
  • First Circuit: Reversing lower court decision in favor of abortion protestor on free speech challenge to Maine Civil Rights Act, the court found that the law is a content-neutral measure that serves a significant state interest without burdening substantially more speech than necessary and while leaving open ample alternative avenues for communication
  • EEOC: Quarterly Digest of Equal Employment Opportunity Law published
  • MHRC: Revised August 14, 2017 Commission Meeting Agenda published
  • United States Courts: Article on courtroom language interpreting lists the top ten languages requiring interpreters in FY 2016, with Spanish being requested in 254,736 court proceedings (96% of all requests) and Mandarin second (1640 requests)
