This is a case about deaf persons’ ability to meaningfully access 911 services.  

On February 11, 2016, the National Association of the Deaf filed this lawsuit on behalf of three plaintiffs in the U.S. District Court for Arizona. The plaintiffs sued the State of Arizona, Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, City of Surprise, City of Tempe and the City of Phoenix.  Plaintiffs alleges violations of Title II of the ADA and Section 504 because defendants failed to ensure that the multiple governmental defendants denied persons who are deaf or hard of hearing had meaningful access to public service access points or PSAPs by failing to provide accessible text-to-911 service when they were outside their homes or beyond access to high-speed internet. Judge John J Tuchi presided.  

On July 29, 2016, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim. 

On February 10, 2017, the court rejected defendants’ motion to dismiss because the plaintiffs stated a valid claim about being denied meaningful access to PSAPs.  

On February 22, 2018, the parties notified the court that they entered into a settlement agreement and the case was dismissed with prejudice on December 30, 2019. The terms of the settlement are unknown the  Clearinghouse at this time. 

The case is now closed.
