   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-3238
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Colloton and Benton, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Americans with Disabilities Act. Plaintiff was not entitled 
   to return to his position because he did not return to work prior to the 
   expiration of FMLA leave; request to work from home was not a reasonable 
   accommodation in light of his testimony that he could work at the city 
   hall but that it "would have been easier" to work from home; nor did 
   plaintiff make a facial showing that he could perform the essential 
   functions of the job remotely; plaintiff failed to show that the City 
   eliminated his position because of his disability or that the City 
   terminated him because of his disability; the district court did not err 
   in determining no reasonable juror could conclude that the City had failed 
   to participate in an interactive dialogue with plaintiff; retaliation 
   claim was properly rejected.
