Texas Supreme Court
Mark Silguero and Amy Wolfe, Appellants v. Csl Plasma, Incorporated, Appellee
June 28, 2019579 S.W.3d 53
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court held that a plasma collection center is a "public facility" under Texas Human Resources Code §121.002(5) and that such a facility may lawfully reject a donor with a disability when the rejection does not constitute discrimination under §121.003(a) or falls within an exception, including a direct‑threat justification. The Court answered two certified questions and applied a de novo construction of the statute.
