1. The plaintiff, a ski instructor and member of the ski patrol in the Oregon Cascades resort region, was married to a woman who was HIV-positive. When she developed full-fledged AIDS, she applied for and was awarded social security disability benefits.

After the plaintiff’s employer learned of his wife’s total-disability status under the social security program and the cause of her disability, it demanded that the plaintiff submit to a blood test to ascertain whether he was HIV-positive. When he refused, he was fired.

What rights do you think the plaintiff has under federal employment laws based on these facts? See John Doe v. An Oregon Resort [2001 WL 880165 (D. Oregon)].
