14.May.2010 Hotel & Restaurant Lawyer Stephen Barth Brings Attention to the Use of the ADA to Prohibit Smoking

Filed In: Hotel Law, Hotel Regulations, Restaurant Law

The potential for liability for places of public accommodation (including restaurants, hotels and casinos) that allow smoking (inside or outside) under the ADA is gaining traction.

Is banning smoking a reasonable accommodation for patrons or employees with qualified breathing disabilities?

Read this excellent brief on the subject by 3 University of Houston Law Center students, Robert D. Ayers, Talia Jarvis, and Richard T. McCarty, to find out where the law is today. Comments are welcome.
