Professor Kat Macfarlane, incoming director of the Disability Law and Policy Program, was quoted in a recent New York Post article on a man who is fighting parking tickets he receives even though he has a disabled parking permit issued by New York City.
In the article “NYC man faces fines and has car auctioned off — despite having a disabled permit”, Macfarlane says, “It’s no mystery that life is difficult for people with disabilities. Fighting for the benefits the law entitles you to is exhausting. There is so much complexity that is built in.”
