   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  00-1294
   District of Minnesota   
   Civil case - civil rights. Employee with petrochemical sensitivities 
   did not make a prima facie showing of discrimination under the 
   Americans with Disabilities Act because she did not show that 
   accommodations she suggested - allowing her to work from home 
   by remote computer access and discontinuance of the use of carbonless 
   paper - were reasonable accommodations to her disability; employer 
   made a thorough investigation of her claim and ERISA plan 
   administrator's decision was entitled to review under an abuse of 
   discretion standard; decision to terminate benefits was not an abuse 
   of discretion; dissent by Judge Lay.
