Bunn v. Khoury Enters., Inc., No. 13-2292 (7th Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CaseBunn, who is legally blind, quit his job at a Dairy Queen franchise and sued the franchisee under the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. 12112. Bunn believed that the employer failed to accommodate his disability and subjected him to illegal disparate treatment when it reduced his scheduled hours during the winter months. The district court granted the employer summary judgment on all claims. The Seventh Circuit affirmed. The employer did reasonably accommodate Bunn’s disability by giving him a regular work station, unlike other employees who were required to rotate stations. The undisputed facts show that he was suspended due to insubordinate conduct towards a supervisor, that his hours decreased following the suspension, and that the restaurant saw decreased demand during the cold weather months and adjusted many employee schedules accordingly.
