“An ADA award of [$590,000] was… assessed against General Electric for its refusal to reasonably accommodate a machinist with a back injury. The machinist, who had injured his back on the job, was released to return to work following a functional capacity evaluation (“FCE”) with a lifting restriction of twenty pounds. The employer rejected the restriction, sending the machinist to another doctor, who recommended his return to work with a restriction of fifty-pounds. GE also rejected this accommodation, and refused to return the machinist to work. The machinist filed for long-term disability benefits, then sued under the ADA. A jury awarded $1.2 million in damages, which the district court reduced to $300,000 in accordance with the statutory cap on ADA damages. The machinist was also awarded $141,110 in front pay and $150,837 in attorney’s fees.”
