If it was a seeing eye dog or some other real service animal, I would agree 100% with the plaintiff, but this is a joke. Unless there is something I cannot even imagine at work here, what we have is a spoiled little brat who got a doctor to write a silly note claiming that the rodent is a service animal. Does the rodent run in a little wheel to recharge the pacemaker? Does the funny looking rat give her the medication when she is too depressed to take it on her own? Or is this just something she wanted so Mommy paid a quack doctor to write a note? If she wants a pet, she should find a pet-friendly apartment. Otherwise she should follow the dorm rules.
Kinda reminds me of an old joke:
Two old friends met in the park while out walking their dogs. It was around lunchtime, so one says, “We should go get some lunch and catch up on all the news.”
The other says, “I don’t think the restaurants will let us take our dogs in.””
The first one says, “Just follow my lead.”
They get to the restaurant and start to enter when the hostess stops them and says, “We don’t allow animals in here!”
The first man says, “I am legally blind and this is my guide dog!”
The hostess looks at the dog, a German Shepard, and profusely apologizes for herself and the restaurant and lets the man enter.
The second man comes up and says, “I’m legally blind as well and this is my guide dog.”
The hostess says, “Your guide dog is a Chihuahua?”
The second mans replies, “Is THAT what they gave me????”.............
She and her father conspired with a doctor to excuse her from normal classes due to "allergies", so that she could still be enrolled in her high school but take courses from paid tutors in her home for every available AP exam.
So she became, I believe, valedictorian and also claimed to be disabled.
Her father also gave her the money to "found" a charitable trust to pad her high school resume: "A disabled genius who still found the time to start a charity!"
