Lawsuit over disability access for tiny California burger joint dropped

From CBS 13:

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -― A lawsuit filed against a famous but tiny Sacramento burger joint over disabled access has been dropped.

The lawsuit against the Squeeze Inn (pictured) was filed back in July by a Sacramento wheelchair-bound woman, who said that there's no handicap parking in the front, no ramp to get a wheelchair through the front door, no room for a wheelchair to turn around inside the business, no room for a wheelchair to sit at the outdoor tables, and no ramp into the restroom.

Owner Travis Hausauer had said he would move from the Fruitridge Road location rather fight the lawsuit and take on the expense of trying to retrofit the tiny restaurant. In fact, Hausauer has already bought another property.
