From the supplier: Suits by mentally or physically handicapped people under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) usually lose, according to a June 1998 survey by the American Bar Ass'n's Commission on Mental and Physical Disability Law. The survey found employers won in 92% of the cases which reached trial and 86% of administrative complaints ruled on by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The Commission reviewed more than 1,200 ADA cases filed since 1992 and all ADA statistics compiled by the EEOC between 1992 and 1997.
