ORDER Denying Defendant's Motion For Summary Judgment by Judge Bernice B. Donald denying motion for partial summary judgment [24-1]; USCO's educational endeavors to minimize concern over the HIV are laudable, but not a substitute for training on provisions of ADA to prevent discrimination; Thus it would seem that EEOC's argument is well taken; It would appear that punitive damages may very well be appropriate in this matter; Taking the facts in a light most favorable to Doe, summary judgment for USCO is simply not appropriate; The court finds that there are genuine issues of material fact in the record which preclude summary judgment for USCO; USCO's motion for partial summary judgment is DENIED; (cc: all counsel) (BAG) (Entered: 11/04/1999)
