1Opinion of the Court
KING, Circuit Judge:
Plaintiff-appellant Danny L. Russell appeals the district court’s judgment, following a jury trial, in favor of defendant-appellee Plano Bank & Trust. Russell claims that the district court’s jury instructions contained an incomplete definition of the term “qualified individual with a disability” within the meaning of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101-12213 (1994), which he argues was likely to have misled the jury. He therefore contends that he is entitled to a new trial. We affirm the judgment of the district court.
