For Monday

Tuesday audio.

Prep the remainder of Chapter 6.

    • Which civil rights statutes validly abrogate and which do not and why?

    • Consider whether the following claims by a fired attorney can proceed under the Americans With Disabilities Act:

        • Attorney working at Greenberg Traurig

        • Attorney working for the Miami-Dade County Attorney

        • Attorney working for the Office of the Florida Attorney General

    • Can states be sued (by name) under § 1983?

    • How does the precise right being enforced matter? Consider the validity of ADA claims against a state entity in the following cases:

        • Prisoner with disability challenging prison conditions

        • Bar applicant with disability challenging conditions for taking bar exam

    • What is the doctrine of Ex parte Young? What are its terms and elements? How does it relate to § 1983?

    • What are the legal fiction(s) on which it rests? What is the argument it is not a legal fiction at all?

    • Prep all remaining Puzzles for the chapter.

I expect to finish this on Tuesday, so the next panel should be ready to go Tuesday.
