1Opinion of the Court
HATCHETT, Chief Judge:
In this Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) case we affirm the district court’s grant of summary judgment to Happy Herman’s Cheshire Bridge, Inc. (Happy Herman’s), because Happy Herman’s reasonably accommodated its former employee Teri Stewart, the appellant, and because Stewart failed to produce sufficient evidence of a triable issue on the question of whether Happy Herman’s illegally retaliated against her. We also affirm the district court’s award of sanctions and attorney’s fees to Happy Herman’s.
