In a recent court filing, Kai Hunte has initiated a lawsuit against Kiko NYC LLC and D & D Realty Company LLC in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The plaintiff, represented by attorney Gabriel A. Levy, alleges ongoing disability discrimination at a public accommodation owned and operated by the defendants. The lawsuit claims violations under Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as well as New York State and City laws. Hunte, who uses a wheelchair due to paralysis from a spinal cord injury, was unable to access the premises due to architectural barriers such as steps at the entrance and non-compliant dining surfaces. The plaintiff seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, and attorney fees.
