A rash of discrimination lawsuits against small businesses appears to be spreading south from Sacramento through Stockton, Manteca and Ripon to Stanislaus County’s literal doorstep.
The latest wave swamped Barnwood Restaurant, a familiar Highway 99 sight that closed a few days ago after its owners were sued by a disabled woman claiming that its parking lot and bathrooms weren’t wheelchair-friendly.
The woman has brought 25 such lawsuits in the past two years, a Modesto Bee review found, including 15 this year and five in the past month.
Her Stockton attorney said he has filed about 46 recent cases alleging violations of the Americans With Disabilities Act. None targeted companies in Stanislaus County, he said, but added that he simply responds to clients’ complaints and does not control where they operate.

Re: Suing your way to wealth
The American Disabilities Act is a fly paper for lawsuits.
This is nothing new.
It's a RINO monument- G.H.W. Bush style.
