Drake v. Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community

Resource Drake v. Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community 2023-04-26

Nadia Drake is the Plaintiff. Her Complaint alleges that she suffers from severe anxiety, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and panic attacks. (Doc. 1, at 2.) Her service dog helps her cope. ( Id. ) Drake went with her service dog to the Community's Talking Stick Casino and Resort (the "Casino") in July 2018. ( Id. ) She alleges that the Casino's employees told her that the service dog had to go – even when Drake and a companion tried to "retrieve their bags to provide [the dog]'s service credentials" to Casino staff. ( Id. ) Drake says that this confrontation with the Casino employees caused her to suffer a panic attack. ( Id. ) The Complaint goes on to allege that Casino employees (and thus the Casino itself under respondeat superior ) violated Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "Act" or "Title III"), which deals with places of public accommodation. (Id. at 3-4); 42 U.S.C. § 12182. Drake also claims that the Casino and its employees intentionally and negligently inflicted emotional distress upon her. (Doc. 1, at 4-5.)
