In 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in "Roe v. Wade" to overturn state abortion bans and the Watergate scandal was in full swing. Meanwhile, a case that attracted far less public attention began in the Southern District. A class action was filed on behalf of minority persons seeking training in jobs in the New York construction industry, which at the time had a well-documented history of racial discrimination.

This week, a much-anticipated ruling on website accessibility was issued out of the Southern District of Florida. The ruling in Gil v. Winn-Dixie Stores, case no. 16-23020-civ-Scola (S.D. FL 2017), will require the attention of businesses across the country that host websites. To recap, this was a case of first impression. After a two-day nonjury trial, Judge Robert Scola determined that Winn-Dixie's website operates as a "gateway" to its physical store locations and therefore is required to be accessible to individuals with disabilities, write Carol C. Lumpkin, Stephanie Moot and Shawn Hogue.
