Whether a private settlement harms the public interest when the underlying conduct that led to the contract formation constitutes acts of felonies that harm the public. 3. Whether the Second Circuit and District Court erred in dismissing Petitioner’s disability discrimination and emotional distress claims while (1) refusing to define and conceptualize the integral psychological condition and symptoms; (2) disregarding the circumstantial evidence in the record that demonstrates discriminatory intent; and (3) requiring Petitioner to identify similarly situated, non-disabled individuals who received better treatment than he did. ; il ;
