Stanley v. City of Sanford, Florida, No. 23-997 [Arg: 1.13.2025]

The Supreme Court case, Stanley v. City of Sanford, Florida. The central question is whether a former employee, who alleges disability discrimination regarding post-employment benefits, can sue under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) even if the alleged discrimination occurred before the employee's retirement. The arguments presented by both sides explore various interpretations of the ADA, focusing on the "qualified individual" requirement and the timing of the discriminatory acts. The Solicitor General also participates, offering an alternative legal argument. The justices' questions probe the implications of different rulings, examining potential impacts on future cases and exploring related legal concepts like reasonable accommodation.
