Rodrigo Nogueira was met with a surprise in April 2025 when lawyers contacted him out of the blue(突然地,出乎意料地). They asked whether he needed legal assistance over a summons(传票) his restaurant received for violating Title III(第三章) of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA)(美国残疾人法案).
2025年4月,律师突然联系罗德里戈·诺盖拉,令他颇感意外。他们问他是否需要法律帮助,因为他的餐厅收到了一张传票,指控其违反了《美国残疾人法案》(ADA)第三章。
It was the first he had ever heard of it. The lawsuit listed 35 violation(违规行为)s against No More Cafe, his restaurant in Manhattan’s East Village(曼哈顿东村).
他之前从未听说过这件事。诉讼列出了针对他位于曼哈顿东村的餐厅 No More Cafe 的35项违规行为。
One violation alleged a table outside the restaurant was not ADA compliant, an accusation that puzzled Nogueira: the cafe had no outdoor tables.(一项违规指控餐厅外的桌子不符合ADA标准,这让诺盖拉困惑:咖啡馆没有户外桌子。) Other alleged(被指控的,据称的) violations were about infraction(违规,违法行为)s inside the restaurant, yet the plaintiff(原告) said he was unable to enter the restaurant.
其中一项违规指控餐厅外的一张桌子不符合 ADA 标准,这让诺盖拉大惑不解:他的咖啡馆根本没有户外桌子。其他指控涉及餐厅内部的违规行为,但原告却说自己无法进入餐厅。
