There ARE limitations in the ADA.

Of course there are and I'm sure her attorney knows what the limitations are, or they wouldn't bother. They don't like to waste their time either.

The problem is these suits have become a billable hour mill for the lawyers and the “activists” who profit via sham expert fees.

If she doesn't have a legitimate case they will be thrown out. In the past it seems that she did indeed have legitimate cases.

You could (and do) have new and accessable buildings which are still sued to generate the fees. Also after teh suit, there is no protection agains the NEXT “activist”.

Is that what she is doing or does this have nothing to do with the article at hand?

ADA suits are a legal scam these days.

The legit cases are the EXCEPTION, the scammers are the rule.

It only takes a single out of compliance 1/2 INCH and this leads to attorneys fees and costs.

THe lawyers count on the fact that it is cheeper to pay the lawyers fees or this scam artists “expert fees”.

ADA suits are a cash cow, they have nothing to do with access as a rule.
