On December 3, 2014, the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania (Eddy, J.) issued an opinion and order denying a motion to dismiss filed by Giant Eagle, Inc. The motion sought dismissal of a class action complaint filed by Lynch Carpenter on behalf of a plaintiff with a mobility disability. In the complaint, Lynch Carpenter alleged that parking lots at defendant’s grocery stores have slopes in their accessible parking spaces and paths of travel that violate the requirements of the ADA. The case subsequently settled.
