Via Overlawyered, we find that Patrick Brady, whose celebral palsy was the basis of his employment discrimination lawsuit against Wal-Mart (initially reported here), has had his award reduced from $7.5 million to $2.5 million:
In Patrick S. Brady v. Wal-Mart Stores, CV 03-3843, plaintiff Patrick Brady, who suffers from cerebral palsy, sued Wal-Mart under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act and state law. In February, a Central Islip, N.Y., jury found that personnel at the store in Centereach, N.Y., violated federal and state laws by making a prohibited inquiry before giving Brady an employment offer.That Brady wanted to be moved to a different position didn't matter.
