Americans with Disabilities Notification Act

Summary

Americans with Disabilities Notification Act - Amends the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 to deny a court jurisdiction over a civil action for which a plaintiff filed a complaint with respect to a place of public accommodation or a commercial facility unless: (1) before filing the complaint, the plaintiff provided to the defendant notice of the alleged violation (by registered mail or in person); (2) the notice identified the specific facts that constitute the alleged violation, including identification of the location at which, and the date on which, the violation occurred; (3) at least 90 days have elapsed after the date on which the notice was so provided before the plaintiff filed the complaint; (4) the notice informed the defendant that the civil action could not be commenced until the expiration of such 90-day period; and (5) the complaint states that, as of the date on which the complaint is filed, the defendant has not corrected the alleged violation. Directs that if a plaintiff files such a complaint but does not meet the criteria: (1) the court shall impose an appropriate sanction on the plaintiff's attorney; and (2) if the plaintiff subsequently meets the criteria and the action proceeds, the court may not allow the plaintiff attorneys' fees or costs.
