Question Presented (from Petition)
1. Whether an "essential job function," is a question of fact for the jury.
2. Whether the Seventh Circuit, along with many other circuits, is allowing courts to grant summary judgment by improperly discounting legitimate questions of fact by: 1) misconstruing the pretext analysis; 2) overly crediting employer testimony; and 3) as to the context of the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"), overlooking failures to engage in the interactive process required under the ADA.
Question Presented (AI Summary)
Whether an 'essential job function' is a question of fact for the jury and whether courts improperly grant summary judgment in ADA cases
