The U.S. Supreme Court has dismissed a case brought by a Wal-Mart Stores employee, Pam Huber, who alleged the company had discriminated against her after she was disabled in an on-the-job accident. At issue in the case was how far employers under the Americans with Disabilities Act must go to accommodate disabled employees. The Court said the case was dismissed under Rule 46.1, which provides for dismissals when both parties agree to settle a dispute.
