(1)  To retaliate or discriminate against a person

complying with this chapter.



(b)  It is a discriminatory practice to deny a
person the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities,

Case Notes



 



  Summary judgment granted in favor of defendants with respect
to a plaintiff's (a nonprofit corporation) claims under subsection (b);
plaintiffs offered nothing to indicate that one of the defendants was hostile
toward the disabled in general or those suffering with epilepsy in particular;
without the evidence, plaintiffs' claim that the defendant denied the nonprofit
corporation the full and equal enjoyment of a place of public accommodation
because of the nonprofit corporation's association with persons known to be
disabled was totally devoid of factual support.  300 F. Supp. 2d 1003.
