Legal Question in Disability Law in Pennsylvania
discrimination against disabled
i have tourette syndrome.
i was recently at the farm
where my girlfriend lives and
where i have been welcome to
use a computer that belongs to
the owners of the farm for my
work for several years.
While using the computer for
work purposes on nov 15 2008
, the male owner told me not to
use the computer anymore and
said ''because you have
Tourettes and i don't want it
damaged!'' (yelled it)
On another ocassion I over
heard him say '' i cant eat with
him and all that touretting''.
Can i sue for discrimination?

Re: discrimination against disabled
Are you saying that someone let you use their personal computer, and then said you could not use it? You don't work at the farm, for the people who own the computer, right?
If so, the answer is no. You can't sue for discrimination. There's no law that says that people have to let you use their computers, and there's no law that says that people can't say anything about your tourettes.
