NYC City Transit Authority, 2011 WL 1315935 (E.D.N.Y., 2011), [46]U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Disability Rights Section. NORFOLK, Va. (AP) A family has settled a lawsuit against the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals for taking a girls unattended dog and euthanizing it, ending an attempt to effectively put PETA on trial for euthanizing hundreds of animals each year. The EEOC alleged in the suit that the carrier did not make reasonable accommodations for Ellison and violated the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). However,certain states extend the same rights to service dogs in training,as fully trained animals have, Helping to guide someone who isvisually impaired or blind, Alerting a person who isdeaf or hard of hearing, Alerting others and protecting someonehaving a seizure, Bringing attention to the presence ofallergens, Providingphysical supportand help withbalanceandstabilityto someone with amobility disability, Helping someone with apsychiatricorneurological disabilityby preventing or interrupting impulsive or destructive behaviors and/or patterns, Reminding someone living with amental illnessto take their prescribed medications, Calming someone withpost-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)during an anxiety attack, Doing other specific work or performing other special tasks.

The court ruled that the An emotional support animal has been defined as an animal that works, provides assistance, or performs tasks for the benefit of a person with a disability, or provides emotional support that alleviates one or more identified symptoms or effects of a persons disability.[17]This definition comes from guidance issued by the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and therefore arguably specific to that agency. Crowley, La. [61]75 Fed. Deep Pressure Therapy Dog [DPT Service Dog] Explained. U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division, ADA Information Line Title I has no specific regulations or guidance related to service animals or emotional support animals, and there is very little case law addressing the question whether an emotional support animal can qualify as a reasonable accommodation for a disabled employee.
