Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTION(S) PRESENTED 1. Did the Court of Appeals commit legal error and abuse their discretion when denying Petitioner’s appeal of the district courts denial of her motions requesting medical reasonable accommodation due to Petitioner’s disability, thereby denying her the opportunity to participate in the judicial process? 2. Did the Court of Appeals commit legal error and abuse their discretion in finding that an order that has the effect of a case being dismissed for lack of prosecution due to the denial of Petitioner’s motions for medical reasonable accommodation is not a collateral order or interlocutory order; and therefore is not appealble?
