Sounds you may soon be the proud owner of your own Subway! Well I would at
least guess you have a very good case against both the store owner and the
Corporation. With a little leg work I bet you can find an attorney will to
represent you on a 30% award basis. I suggest you put this story on
FACEBOOK like the fat guy who was recently forced off a plane. People like
that cold hearted S.O.B. have no business running a business.
Good thing it was not me or I may have used the attack command for the dog!

Subject: [epilepsy] Was thrown out of Subway because of my service dog!
My husband and I went to lunch and I had my sd with me. I put her under the
table in downstay position. The manager told me to leave that no dogs were
allowed. I told him she was my sd and then handded him the ada laws card. He
would not look at card. I told him I would not leave that he was breaking
the law and I would call police. He told me to go ahead. I called the police
and officer Turpin came out. He had been on the force 30 yrs and had never
handled a case like this.
He talked withme and I told him what happened. during this time my husband
gets in line and orders lunch, 2 sandwhiches, but manager says he will serve
him only not me. (this was right before po got there) Anyways my husband ate
his sandwhich while I talked and then the po went to talk with the manager
in the back.
The po came back and talked with me again and said this is a civil matter
and that he told the manager of the ada laws and civil rights, but he really
didn't know much about them. The officer said that I could get a copy of the
report, but he was sorry I was being treated this way because so many people
out here in tx see sds or working dogs.
I left not being served and filed compaints with corporate subway and am
filling out a form for the ada department. Its going to take alot more than
a simplke apology from them. I have never been "thrown out" and the officer
remarked at how well me sd was. She never moved from where she was put down.
Very well behaved dog I have!
The owner of the store was called by manager and he didn't even know about
sds so I was told by the po that the owner would have to call corporate and
find out. Either way I was not served and want justice!
Any comments and suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks, Terri
