Outcome

Case remanded to state court for lack of federal subject matter jurisdiction. The plaintiff's complaint asserted only a state-law claim under California's Unruh Civil Rights Act, and the defendant's reliance on ADA violations as a jurisdictional hook was insufficient to confer federal question jurisdiction.

What This Ruling Means

**Bores v. Lime Crime: Disability Discrimination Case** This case involved Guadalupe Bores, who filed a lawsuit against cosmetics company Lime Crime, Inc., claiming the company discriminated against them because of a disability. Bores alleged that Lime Crime violated the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which is the federal law that protects workers from disability-based discrimination in the workplace. Unfortunately, the specific outcome of this case is not available in the court records provided. The case was filed in December 2019 in federal court, but details about how the court ruled or whether the case was settled are not included in the available information. **What This Means for Workers:** Even without knowing the final outcome, this case highlights important rights that all workers have under the ADA. Employees with disabilities are protected from discrimination in hiring, firing, promotions, and other workplace decisions. Employers must also provide reasonable accommodations to help disabled workers do their jobs, unless doing so would cause undue hardship for the business. Workers who believe they've faced disability discrimination have the right to file complaints and seek legal remedies through the courts.
