Final lawsuit against businesses is settled

Posted February 4, 2012

A blitz of lawsuits claiming that Southwest Virginia malls and businesses discriminated against disabled people came to an end this week, when the 11th and final case was settled.

Last February, the Florida-based group filed lawsuits against Crossroads and six other Roanoke-area shopping centers, as well as three stores in Christiansburg and Martinsville, two motels in Radford and Dublin, and Radford University.
