ROMAN v. STARBUCKS CORPORATION

What this case is about

A plaintiff has filed a class action lawsuit against Starbucks under the Americans with Disabilities Act, alleging that the company discriminated against employees or job applicants with disabilities in the employment context. The lawsuit claims that Starbucks failed to provide reasonable accommodations, engaged in discriminatory hiring or workplace practices, or otherwise treated individuals with disabilities unfairly in violation of federal disability rights law. The proposed class would likely include current, former, or prospective Starbucks employees who have disabilities and were subjected to similar discriminatory treatment. The case focuses on employment practices rather than consumer-facing issues, seeking to hold Starbucks accountable for allegedly failing to meet its legal obligations toward workers with disabilities.
