US Supreme Court: “Ministerial exception” shields two Catholic schools from liability for disability and age discrimination against two elementary school teachers
Sixth Circuit: Plaintiff plausibly alleged that her abnormal pre-cancerous cells and genetic mutation that contributed to abnormal cell growth was a protected disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act, even thought a genetic mutation that merely predisposes an individual to other conditions, such as cancer, is not itself a disability under the ADA (plaintiff did not bring a claim under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act)
Law Court: oral arguments set for July 15th include Cum-18-445, which will decide whether Superior Court erred in ordering hospital in medical malpractice action to produce redacted medical records of fifty nonparty patients who had undergone procedures similar to the one plaintiff underwent
MHRC: The Commission is accepting filings/submissions by e-mail (subject to three conditions) during coronavirus pandemic
Maine DOL: Unemployment recipient work search waiver for workers temporarily laid off from their jobs, and who expect to return to them, now runs through September 5
