Outcome

The Fifth Circuit affirmed the district court's judgment on the pleadings for GStek, holding that Hayes failed to establish a prima facie case for his ADA failure-to-accommodate, discrimination, or retaliation claims because in-person attendance was an essential function of his job and he was not a qualified individual.
