James Evans v. Anabolic Aliens LLC

Case Summary

According to the complaint, James Evans, a visually impaired individual, is suing Anabolic Aliens LLC for failing to make its website, anabolicaliens.com, accessible to blind users. Evans alleges that the website contains significant barriers that prevent him and others from independently navigating and completing transactions. The complaint cites violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and seeks both injunctive relief to make the website accessible and compensatory damages for the discrimination faced.
