| Tanoshi Tei Inc.source ↗ filed by The Marks Law Firm, PC · Judge Margaret M. Garnett · No. 1:26-cv-06974 · 28:1331 Fed. Question · view case timeline → Case comparables ▾ADA Title III accessibility suits against small businesses rarely reach final rulings; Price v. Diab shows courts will award fees even on default judgments, incentivizing quick settlement. No merits rulings on accessibility standards are in this sample, so survival is largely procedural. Key precedent: Price v. Diab (9th Cir.) — confirms fee-shifting exposure even absent contested merits, pressuring small defendants like Tanoshi Tei to settle early. Main risk: Default judgment risk given small restaurant defendant likely lacks counsel/resources, per Price v. Diab pattern. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $2K–$25K Extremely thin comparable set (no accessibility-specific rulings, no settlements); estimate relies on general ADA Title III litigation norms, not case-specific data. · grounded in 2 rulings, 0 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.N.Y. | 2026-08-14 | $2K–$25K rough EV |
