Case Summary

This is a case about reasonable modifications and accommodations for students with mobility disabilities in college or university. Represented by a private firm and All Access Law Group (a firm that specialized in disability discrimination cases), the lawsuit was filed by named plaintiff student against California State University (CSU) and Compass Group USA on October 29, 2021 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.

This is a case about reasonable modifications and accommodations for students with mobility disabilities in college or university. Represented by a private firm and All Access Law Group (a firm that specialized in disability discrimination cases), the lawsuit was filed by named plaintiff student against California State University (CSU) and Compass Group USA on October 29, 2021 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. Her complaint alleged that the university system violated Title II of the Americans with the Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Fair Housing Act by failing to make its campuses accessible to students with disabilities. The named plaintiff was a person with mobility disabilities that required her to use a wheelchair and other mobility aids, who was enrolled at California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt, which is part of the CSU system. The plaintiff sought monetary damages and injunctive and declaratory relief.

On March 4, 2022, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which included a request for 23(b)(2) class certification. The Complaint proposed two classes. The first proposed class was “persons with mobility disabilities who: (a) are enrolled students at a CSU campus; (b) use wheelchairs, scooters, or other mobility aids or devices; and (c) are residing or will attempt to reside in CSU student housing that is located on a floor that can only be accessed by use of stairs or an elevator.” The second proposed class was “persons with mobility disabilities who: (a) are enrolled students at a CSU campus; (b) use wheelchairs, scooters, or other mobility aids or devices; and (c) who are enrolled in a CSU class or will attempt to enroll in a CSU class that is located on a floor that can only be accessed by use of stairs or an elevator.”

After Plaintiff filed a Second Amended Complaint, Plaintiff reached a settlement agreement for injunctive relief with defendant Compass Group USA, a corporation that supplied and managed the campus dining facilities, on May 13, 2022. The parties submitted to the court a stipulation for dismissal with prejudice of all claims against Compass Group. On the same day, Judge Haywood S. Gilliam, Jr. ordered the dismissal and retained jurisdiction to enforce the injunctive relief specified in the settlement, i.e. remedial policy and administrative procedure changes.

In September 2022, the case was reassigned to Judge Trina L Thompson. Then, in December 2022, Judge Thompson granted the remaining parties’ stipulation to be referred to Magistrate Judge Sallie Kim for settlement. Settlement conferences began in January 2023.

CSU moved to strike class allegations and/or dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on May 31, 2022. Judge Thompson granted in part and denied in part Defendant CSU’s motion to strike class allegations on March 24, 2023. The order struck Plaintiff’s claims under the Rehabilitation Act and to the extent it was on behalf of the proposed classes. The order also explained that “the Court has concerns that the remaining class claims may seek relief that the Court cannot provide or lead to potential trials-within-a-trial,” but found that it was premature to strike the claims. Pursuant to this order, Plaintiff filed a Third Amended Complaint on April 24, 2023.

On August 25, 2023, parties submitted a notice of a settlement agreement to resolve all claims between the parties. A couple of months later, Judge Thompson dismissed the action with prejudice because the parties reached a settlement on October 10, 2023. The Clearinghouse is unable to find specific details about the content of the private settlement.
