Civil case - civil rights. The Americans with Disabilities Act does not
encompass failure to train police officers to deal with the mentally ill;
in any event, plaintiffs failed to demonstrate that more adequate training
to accommodate the mentally ill would have required a different response in
the situation which led to plaintiff's decedent's death.
