Professor Valarie Blake Rewrites Doe v. Mutual of Omaha for U.S. Feminist Judgments Project

West Virginia University law professor Valarie Blake is contributing to the U.S. Feminist Judgments Project by rewriting Doe v. Mutual of Omaha. The case deals with the issue of whether the Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits private insurers from discriminating against patients with AIDS. The U.S. Feminist Judgments Project is a collaborative effort of more than 100 feminist law professors to rewrite U.S. legal decisions from a feminist perspective. They have produced a series of volumes of rewritten opinions in the area tax, torts, corporations, trusts and estates, employment discrimination, family law, and reproductive justice. 

Professor Blake participated in a workshop on December 7, 2018 with other commentators and opinion writers at Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law.
