Domino's Pizza, LLC v. Guillermo Robles

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 17-55504 · judgment January 15, 2019

Certiorari denied · October 7, 2019
Pre-decision estimate: 15% cert probability (95% interval 11%–19%)

Before the decision, about 3.5× the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for counsel who has won certiorari before, a Ninth Circuit decision below, and a circuit split argued in the petition.

Question presented

Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) provides, in relevant part, that “[n]o individual shall be discriminated against on the basis of disability in the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations of any place of public accommodation by any person who owns, leases (or leases to), or operates a place of public accommodation.” The question presented is: Whether Title III of the ADA requires a website or mobile phone application that offers goods or services to the public to satisfy discrete accessibility requirements with respect to individuals with disabilities?
