UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

MIAMI DIVISION

CASE NO.:

WINDY LUCIUS,

Plaintiff,

v.

HARVEST SEASONAL GRILL 

DELRAY, LLC and HARVEST

RESTAURANT HOLDINGS, LLC

Defendants.

/

COMPLAINT FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

Plaintiff Windy Lucius hereby sues Defendant Delray Grill Delray, LLC and Defendant 

The Harvest Restaurant Holdings, LLC for Injunctive Relief, attorney’s fees, litigation expenses

and costs pursuant to Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, 42 

U.S.C. §§s 12181-12189 (“ADA”), 28 C.F.R. Part 36, et seq.

1. Venue lies in the Southern District of Florida pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) and 

Local Rule 3.1, in that the original transaction or occurrence giving rise to this cause of action 

occurred in this District.

2. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1331 and 28 U.S.C. § 1343, this Court has been given 

original jurisdiction over actions which arise from the Defendants’ violations of Title III of the 

Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12181 et seq. See also 28 U.S.C. § 2201 and § 2202.

3. Plaintiff Windy Lucius (“Plaintiff”) is a Florida resident, lives in Miami-Dade

County, issui juris, and qualifies as an individual with disabilities as defined by the ADA. Plaintiff 

is legally blind and a member of a protected class under the ADA, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12102(1)-(2), the 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 1 of 16

regulations implementing the ADA set forth at 28 CFR §§ 36.101 et seq. and in 42 U.S.C. 3602, 

§802(h). Plaintiff is substantially limited in the major life activity of seeing. Plaintiff’s disability 

is defined in 28 C.F.R. §36.105(b)(2).

4. Plaintiff uses the internet and a mobile device to help her navigate a world of goods, 

products and services like the sighted. The internet, websites and mobile applications provide her

a window into the world that she would not otherwise have. She brings this action against 

Defendants for offering and maintaining a mobile website (software that is intended to run on 

mobile devises such as phones or tablet computers) that is not fully accessible and independently 

usable by visually impaired consumers. Plaintiff utilizes the Apple Screen Reader VoiceOver 

software to read computer materials and/or access and comprehend internet mobile website

information which is specifically designed for the visually impaired.

5. Plaintiff is also an advocate of the rights of similarly situated disabled persons and 

is a “tester” for the purpose of asserting her civil rights and monitoring, ensuring, and determining 

whether places of public accommodation and/or their mobile websites are in compliance with the 

ADA.

6. Defendant Delray Grill Delray, LLC (also referenced as “Defendant Delray” or 

collectively with Defendant Harvest Restaurant Holdings, LLC as “Defendants”) is a Florida 

limited liability company which is the owner and operator of a Harvest Seasonal (brand) restaurant

which is located within this district and is open to the public. Defendant Delray is defined as a 

“Public Accommodation" within meaning of Title III because Defendant Delray is a private entity 

which owns and/or operates “[A] restaurant, bar, or other establishment serving food or drink,” 42 

U.S.C. §12181(7)(B) and 28 C.F.R. §36.104(2).

7. Defendant Delray’s Harvest Seasonal restaurant (which is the subject of this action) 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 2 of 16
3

is located at 1841 South Federal Highway, Delray Beach, Florida 33483 and because it is open to 

the public it is a Place of Public Accommodation subject to the requirements of Title III of the 

ADA and its implementing regulation as defined by 42 U.S.C. §12181(7)(B), §12182, and 28 

C.F.R. §36.104(2). Defendant Delray’s restaurant is referenced herein as “place of public

accommodation,” “Harvest Seasonal Delray (restaurant),” “Harvest Seasonal (restaurant),” or 

“restaurant.”

8. Defendant Harvest Restaurant Holdings, LLC (a Delaware limited liability 

company) (also referenced as “Defendant Harvest Holdings” or collectively with Defendant 

Delray as “Defendants”) is a hospitality company that has developed the “Harvest Seasonal” 

restaurant brand which features farm to table menu items which are updated every three months 

(each season). On information and belief, Defendant Harvest Holdings is the entity which manages 

the individual Harvest Seasonal restaurants through subsidiary companies and is the parent 

corporation to Delray Grill Delray, LLC (Defendant Delray). There are eight Harvest Seasonal 

restaurants, six of which are in Pennsylvania, one in New Jersey and one in Florida. 

9. Subsequent to the effective date of the ADA, Defendant Harvest Holdings

constructed, or caused to be constructed, the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website

(hereinafter “mobile website”) for the benefit and use of all eight of the Harvest Seasonal 

restaurants (including Defendant Delray’s Harvest Seasonal restaurant) with the intent that the 

general public access the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website on their mobile devices 

(phones, tablets). This mobile website supports, is an extension of, is in conjunction with, is 

complementary and supplemental to the Harvest Seasonal restaurant chain. The mobile website 

delineates the goods, services, accommodations, privileges, benefits and facilities available to 

patrons at Harvest Seasonal restaurant physical locations, and with particularity, the Harvest 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 3 of 16
4

Seasonal Delray restaurant. 

10. The mobile website is offered by Defendants as a way for the public to become 

familiar with the Harvest Seasonal Delray restaurant menu selections, as well as information on 

hours of operation, each restaurant location (including Defendant Delray’s restaurant location), 

provides a link to reserve a table for dining within the restaurant, permits the general public to 

order food online and have that food delivered to their home via Door Dash or UberEATS, and 

has a link to order online for pick up at the restaurant physical location, and provides other 

information Defendants seek to communicate to the public. The public can also view private 

dining/catering menus online and can inquire and book catering and private dining events online

(by restaurant location). The mobile website also links to Seasonal Harvest Twitter, Facebook,

Instagram and Linked-In pages and allows the public to purchase gift cards (e-gift/digital and

traditional “cards”) online for exclusive use at Seasonal Harvest restaurant locations (including the 

Harvest Seasonal Delray location) and permits the gift card holder to check their balance online. 

By the provision of menu selection, reservation services, online ordering, food delivery options, 

and the ability to purchase gift cards online, the mobile website is an integral part of the goods and 

services offered by Defendants. By this nexus, the mobile website is characterized as a Place of 

Public Accommodation to Title III of the ADA1, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12181(7)(B) & (E) and 28 C.F.R. 

§§36.104 (2) & (5).

11. As the owner, operator (and beneficiary, based on Defendant Harvest Holding’s 

1 Ensuring Web Accessibility for people with disabilities has become a priority for the Department of Justice. The 

Department of Justice Civil Rights Division has taken the position that both State and local government websites (Title 

II) and the websites of private entities that are public accommodations (Title III) are covered by the ADA. On March 

18, 2022, the DOJ issued guidance on Web Accessibility, see https://beta.ada.gov/resources/web-guidance/. The 

guidance states that individuals with disabilities should not be denied equal access to information, and inaccessible 

websites are as excluding as are access barriers to physical locations. DOJ guidance requires that website barriers must 

be identified, prevented, and removed so that all Title II and Title III entities offer websites that are accessible to 

people with disabilities.

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 4 of 16

interest in each Harvest Seasonal restaurant) of the mobile website which is a Place of Public 

Accommodation, Defendant Harvest Holdings is a “Public Accommodation" within meaning of 

Title III under 42 U.S.C. §§ 12181(7)(B) & (E) and 28 C.F.R. §§36.104 (2) & (5).

12. The https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website allows mobile device users to use 

a mobile platform through a connection to Wi-Fi or cellular data so that mobile device users can 

manage their dining choice from their mobile device. As such, Defendants have subjected 

themselves to the ADA because the mobile website is offered as a tool to promote, advertise and 

sell Defendants’ products and services from the various Harvest Seasonal restaurants, including 

the Harvest Seasonal Delray restaurant. As a result, the mobile website must interact with Harvest 

Seasonal restaurants and the public, and in doing so must comply with the ADA, which means it 

must not discriminate against individuals with disabilities and may not deny full and equal 

enjoyment of the goods and services afforded to the general public.2

13. The mobile website does not properly interact with the VoiceOver screen reader 

software technology in a manner that allows blind and visually impaired individuals to 

comprehend the mobile website and does not provide other means to accommodate blind and 

visually impaired individuals.

14. Like the seeing community, Plaintiff would like the opportunity to be able to use 

the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website to comprehend Harvest Seasonal restaurant menu 

selections and to test for the ability to: make reservations to dine in the Harvest Seasonal Delray

restaurant, inquire and book special/private dining events and inquire about catering (and book 

catering events), purchase gift cards online, and to order food online for delivery or pick up. 

2 According to Statista, almost half of web traffic in the United States originated form mobile devices in 2021. 

Therefore, Defendant knew or should have known that potential customers would be using the mobile version of its 

website and provided accessibility for blind users.

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 5 of 16

However, unless Defendants are required to eliminate the access barriers and change their policies 

so that access barriers do not reoccur, Plaintiff will continue to be denied full and equal access to 

the mobile website and will be deterred from fully using the mobile website and/or dining at the 

Harvest Seasonal Delray restaurant, which is located within this district.

15. Plaintiff is continuously aware of the violations on the mobile website and is aware 

that it would be a futile gesture to attempt to utilize that mobile website as long as those violations 

exist unless she is willing to suffer additional discrimination.

16. Defendants and alike restaurants are fully aware of the need to provide full access 

to all visitors to the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website as barriers result in discriminatory 

and unequal treatment of individuals with disabilities who are visually impaired and result in 

punishment and isolation of blind and low vision individuals from the rest of society. 

17. Plaintiff has no plain, adequate, or complete remedy at law to redress the wrongs 

alleged herein and this action is her only means to secure adequate redress from Defendants’

discriminatory practice.

18. Notice to Defendants is not required as a result of Defendants’ failure to cure the 

violations. Enforcement of the rights of Plaintiff is right and just pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 2201, 

2202. 

19. Plaintiff has been obligated to retain the civil rights law office of J. Courtney 

Cunningham, PLLC and has agreed to pay a reasonable fee for services in the prosecution of this 

cause, including costs and expenses incurred. Plaintiff is entitled to recover those attorney’s fees, 

costs and expenses from Defendants pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §12205 and 28 CFR 36.505.

COUNT I – VIOLATIONS OF TITLE III OF THE ADA

20. The ADA requires that Public Accommodations (and Places of Public 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 6 of 16
7

Accommodation) ensure that communication is effective, which includes the provision of auxiliary 

aids and services for such purpose.

21. According to 28 C.F.R. Section 36.303(b)(1), auxiliary aids and services includes 

“voice, text, and video-based telecommunications products and systems.” 28 C.F.R. Section 

36.303(b)(2) specifically states that (VoiceOver) screen reader software is an effective method of 

making visually delivered material available to individuals who are blind or have low vision.

22. 28 C.F.R. Section 36.303(c)(1)(ii) specifically states that public accommodations 

must furnish appropriate auxiliary aids and services where necessary to ensure effective 

communication with individuals with disabilities. “In order to be effective, auxiliary aids and 

services must be provided in accessible formats, in a timely manner, and in such a way as to protect 

the privacy and independence of the individual with a disability.” 

23. Part 36 of Title 28 of the C.F.R. was designed and is implemented to effectuate 

subtitle A of Title III of the ADA, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by 

public accommodations and requires places of public accommodation to be designed, constructed, 

and altered in compliance with the accessibility standards established by Part 36. 

24. The https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website has been designed to integrate with 

the Harvest Seasonal Delray restaurant location through provision of a reservation service, the 

ability to order food for delivery or pickup at the restaurant, to inquire and book special/private 

events (and catering) and to purchase gift cards online. Therefore, the mobile website is an 

extension of Harvest Seasonal restaurants (specifically, the Harvest Seasonal Delray restaurant).

By and through the mobile website, Defendants have specifically extended the Harvest Seasonal 

Delray restaurant location into individual persons' homes and portable devices wherever located. 

The mobile website is a service, facility, privilege, advantage, benefit and accommodation of 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 7 of 16
8

Defendants’ restaurants (places of public accommodation). As such, the mobile website is 

integrated with, and is a nexus to each Harvest Seasonal restaurant and specifically the Harvest 

Seasonal Delray restaurant. Therefore, it is governed by the following provisions:

a. U.S.C. Section 12182(a) provides: “No individual shall be discriminated 

against on the basis of disability in the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, 

privileges, advantages, or accommodations of any place of public accommodation by any person 

who owns, leases (or leases to), or operates a place of public accommodation.”

b. 42 U.S.C. Section 12182(b)(1)(A)(i) provides: “It shall be discriminatory to 

subject an individual or class of individuals on the basis of a disability or disabilities of such 

individual or class, directly, or through contractual, licensing, or other arrangements, to a denial 

of the opportunity of the individual or class to participate in or benefit from the goods, services, 

facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations of an entity[.]”

c. 42 U.S.C. Section 12182(b)(1)(A)(ii) provides: “It shall be discriminatory 

to afford an individual or class of individuals, on the basis of a disability or disabilities of such 

individual or class, directly, or through contractual, licensing, or other arrangements with the 

opportunity to participate in or benefit from a good, service, facility, privilege, advantage, or 

accommodation that is not equal to that afforded to other individuals[.]”

d. 42 U.S.C. Section 12182(b)(1)(A)(ii) provides: “It shall be discriminatory 

to provide an individual or class of individuals, on the basis of a disability or disabilities of such 

individual or class, directly, or through contractual, licensing, or other arrangements with a good, 

service, facility, privilege, advantage, or accommodation that is different or separate from that 

provided to other individuals, unless such action is necessary to provide the individual or class of 

individuals with a good, service, facility, privilege, advantage, or accommodation, or other 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 8 of 16
9

opportunity that is as effective as that provided to others[.]”

e. 42 U.S.C. Section 12182(b)(1)(B) provides: “Goods, services, facilities, 

privileges, advantages, and accommodations shall be afforded to an individual with a disability in 

the most integrated setting appropriate to the needs of the individual.”

f. 42 U.S.C. Section 12182(b)(1)(C) provides: “Notwithstanding the existence 

of separate or different programs or activities provided in accordance with this section, an 

individual with a disability shall not be denied the opportunity to participate in such programs or 

activities that are not separate or different.”

g. 42 U.S.C. Section 12182(b)(2)(ii) describes as discrimination: “a failure to 

make reasonable modifications in policies, practices, or procedures, when such modifications are 

necessary to afford such goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations to 

individuals with disabilities, unless the entity can demonstrate that making such modifications 

would fundamentally alter the nature of such goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or 

accommodations[.]”

h. 42 U.S.C. Section 12182(b)(2)(iii) describes as discrimination: “a failure to 

take such steps as may be necessary to ensure that no individual with a disability is excluded, 

denied services, segregated or otherwise treated differently than other individuals because of the 

absence of auxiliary aids and services, unless the entity can demonstrate that taking such steps 

would fundamentally alter the nature of the good, service, facility, privilege, advantage, or 

accommodation being offered or would result in an undue burden[.]”

25. Plaintiff attempted but was unable to access and/or utilize the mobile website 

https://harvestseasonal.com. Plaintiff continues to be unable to enjoy full and equal access to the 

mobile website and/or understand the content therein because numerous portions of the mobile 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 9 of 16
10

website do not interface with VoiceOver screen reader software. Specifically, features of the 

mobile website that are inaccessible to VoiceOver screen reader software users include, but are 

not limited to, the following (citing the WCAG 2.1 Level A and AA Guidelines): 

i. Guideline 1.1.1 Non-Text Content is violated. The vegetarian icons on the catering menu 

are not announced. None of the dishes within this icon are announced as vegetarian. 

ii. Guideline 1.3.1 Info and Relationships is violated. Each popup button in the OpenTable 

reservation widget requires four swipes before the name of the button is announced. For 

example, when a mobile VoiceOver screen reader software user swipes to the date button, 

the calendar icon is announced as just "d,” then the current date is announced. With the 

third swipe, focus moves to the arrow icon, and "m" is announced. A mobile VoiceOver 

screen reader software user must swipe a fourth time before the full label and the role of 

popup button is announced. Mobile VoiceOver screen reader software users must swipe a 

total of 12 times to hear the three buttons.

iii. Guideline 1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence is violated. Content must be presented in a 

meaningful order, and this is violated. The Schedule Your Delivery button on the Gift Card

page opens a date picker popup when pressed, but none of the dates are announced to 

mobile VoiceOver screen reader software users. Only the buttons at the top and bottom of 

the date picker are announced. This is a “read only” field, so mobile VoiceOver screen 

reader software users cannot type a date, they must select one from the date picker.

iv. Guideline 2.4.3 Focus order is violated. The mobile website is required to provide focus in 

a logical order, and this has been violated. Mobile VoiceOver screen reader software users 

are taken to the Reservations page when they press the Make a reservation button at the 

top of the Delray page. The date field is announced as “read-only” so a mobile VoiceOver 

screen reader software user must select a date from the date picker, but mobile VoiceOver 

screen reader software users are only able to select the current (todays) date. They are 

unable to hear or select any future dates because focus exits the date picker field after the 

current date is announced. 

v. Guideline 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value is violated. All elements must be built for accessibility 

and this is not the case. A dialog is displayed with a reservation form when the Reservations 

button at the bottom of the Delray page is pressed. The date field is announced as “readonly” so a mobile VoiceOver screen reader software user must select a date; however, only 

the current date is announced when the date picker is displayed. When a mobile VoiceOver 

screen reader software user swipes to move to the next date, focus exits the popup. 

26. As the owner and/or operator and/or beneficiary of the Harvest Seasonal restaurant

mobile website, Defendants are required to comply with the ADA and the provisions cited above. 

This includes Defendants’ obligation to create and maintain a mobile website that is accessible to

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 10 of 16
11

and usable by visually impaired persons so that they can enjoy full and equal access to the mobile 

website and the content therein, including the ability to make a reservation to dine within the 

Harvest Seasonal Delray restaurant, the ability to order food online for delivery or pickup, and the 

ability to purchase gift cards online. 

27. In this instant case, the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website reservation and 

food delivery accommodations are linked to third party vendors. The fact that a portion of the 

WCAG 2.1 Level A and AA Guideline violations may be related to third party vendor platforms

does not absolve Defendants of culpability. Because restaurants are places of public 

accommodation, their operators are subject to the requirements of Title III as well. 42 U.S.C. § 

12181(7)(b). Those requirements include a prohibition against subjecting patrons with disabilities 

to discrimination “through contractual, licensing, or other arrangements,” such as use of third party 

vendors’ inaccessible platforms for making reservations. 42 U.S.C. § 12182(b)(1)(A); See Kohler 

v Bed Bath & Beyond of Cal., LLC, 780 F.3d 1260, 1264-66 (9th Cir. 2015) (Pre-existing 

obligations under Title III of the ADA may not be avoided through contractual arrangements, and 

those obligations remain even where compliance is under control of another party); Robles v. Yum! 

Brands, Inc., 2018 WL 566781, *4 (C.D. Cal. January 24, 2018) (restaurant operators are liable 

for website and mobile app accessibility where there is a nexus to the restaurants themselves).

28. With respect to the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website, Defendants have

violated the ADA by failing to interface the mobile website with VoiceOver screen reader software 

utilized by visually impaired individuals (as specifically delineated within paragraph 25) either 

directly or through contractual, licensing or other arrangements. These violations have resulted in 

Defendants’ joint and several denial of accommodation to Plaintiff in the basis of her disability:

a. by depriving Plaintiff of the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services,

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 11 of 16
12

facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations of its place of public accommodation (42 

U.S.C. § 12182(a));

b. in the denial of providing Plaintiff the opportunity to participate in or benefit 

from the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations (42 U.S.C. §

12182(b)(1)(A)(i));

c. in failing to afford Plaintiff the opportunity to participate in or benefit from 

a good, service, facility, privilege, advantage, or accommodation that is equal to that afforded to 

other individuals (42 U.S.C. § 12182(b)(1)(A)(ii));

d. by providing Plaintiff a good, service, facility, privilege, advantage, or 

accommodation that is different or separate from that provided to other individuals (unless

such action is necessary to provide the individual or class of individuals with a good, service, 

facility, privilege, advantage, or accommodation, or other opportunity that is as effective as that 

provided to others) (42 U.S.C. § 12182(b)(1)(A)(iii));

e. by failing to afford Plaintiff goods, services, facilities, privileges, 

advantages, and accommodations in the most integrated setting appropriate to the needs of the 

disabled individual (42 U.S.C. § 12182(b)(1)(B));

f. notwithstanding the existence of separate or different programs or activities 

provided in accordance with this section, by denying Plaintiff the opportunity to participate in such

programs or activitiesthat are notseparate or different.(42 U.S.C. § 12182(b)(1)(C));

g. by a failure to make reasonable modifications in policies, practices, or 

procedures, when such modifications are necessary to afford such goods, services, facilities,

privileges, advantages, or accommodations to individuals with disabilities (unless the entity can 

demonstrate that making such modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of such goods,

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 12 of 16
13

services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations) (42 U.S.C. § 12182(b)(2)(ii)); and,

h. by a failure to take such steps as necessary to ensure that disabled 

individuals are not excluded, denied services, segregated or otherwise treated differently than other 

individuals because of the absence of auxiliary aids and services (unless the entity can demonstrate 

that taking such steps would fundamentally alter the nature of the good, service, facility, privilege, 

advantage, or accommodation being offered or would result in an undue burden) (42 U.S.C. §

12182(b)(2)(iii)).

29. Plaintiff is continuously aware of the violations within the mobile website

https://harvestseasonal.com and is aware that it would be a futile gesture to attempt to utilize that

mobile website as long as those violations exist unless she is willing to suffer additional 

discrimination.

30. Plaintiff is well aware that the ADA requires effective communications. However, 

long after the required date of compliance, many public accommodations refuse to comply leaving 

Plaintiff feeling excluded and rejected because she is disabled. As a result, Plaintiff has suffered

(and continues to suffer) frustration and humiliation as the result of the discriminatory conditions 

present within the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website. By continuing to operate the mobile 

website with discriminatory conditions, Defendants continue to contribute to Plaintiff's sense of 

isolation and segregation and to deprive Plaintiff the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, 

services, facilities, privileges and/or accommodations Defendants make available to the general 

public. By encountering the discriminatory conditions within the mobile website and knowing that 

it would be a futile gesture to attempt to utilize the mobile website unless she is willing to endure 

additional discrimination, Plaintiff is deprived of the meaningful choice of freely visiting and 

utilizing the same accommodations readily available to the general public and is deterred and 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 13 of 16
14

discouraged from doing so. By maintaining a mobile website with violations, Defendants have 

deprived (and continue to deprive) Plaintiff the equality of opportunity offered to the general 

public.

31. Plaintiff has suffered (and will continue to suffer) direct and indirect injury as a 

result of Defendants’ discrimination until Defendants are compelled to comply with the 

requirements of the ADA and conform their mobile website to WCAG 2.1 Level A and AA

Guidelines.

32. Plaintiff has a realistic, credible, existing and continuing threat of discrimination 

from Defendants’ non-compliance with the ADA with respect to the https://harvestseasonal.com

mobile website. Plaintiff has reasonable grounds to believe that she will continue to be subjected 

to discrimination in violation of the ADA by Defendant when she visits the website to test for 

compliance with the ADA. Plaintiff desires to access the mobile website to avail herself of the 

benefits, advantages, goods and services therein, and/or to assure herself that this mobile website

is in compliance with the ADA so that Plaintiff will have full and equal enjoyment of the mobile 

website without fear of discrimination.

33. Plaintiff is without adequate remedy at law and has suffered (and will continue to

suffer) irreparable harm. Plaintiff will continue to suffer such discrimination, injury and damage 

without the immediate relief provided by the ADA as requested herein.

34. Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 12188, this Court is provided with authority to grant 

Plaintiff Injunctive Relief, including an order to require Defendants to alter the mobile website

https://harvestseasonal.com to make it readily accessible to and usable by Plaintiff and other 

persons with vision impairments.

WHEREFORE, Plaintiff Windy Lucius hereby demands judgment against Defendant 

Case 1:22-cv-23121-XXXX Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/26/2022 Page 14 of 16
15

Delray Grill Delray, LLC and Defendant The Harvest Restaurant Holdings, LLC and requests the 

following injunctive and declaratory relief:

a. The Court issue a Declaratory Judgment that determines that the mobile website

https://harvestseasonal.com is in violation of Title III of the Americans with 

Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12181 et seq.;

b. The Court issue a Declaratory Judgment that Defendants have violated the ADA by 

failing to monitor and maintain the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website to 

ensure that it is readily accessible to and usable by persons with vision impairment;

c. The Court issue an Order directing Defendants to alter the mobile website to make 

it accessible to, and useable by, individuals with disabilities to the full extent

required by Title III of the ADA;

d. The Court issue an Order directing Defendants provide the appropriate auxiliary 

aids such that individuals with visual impairments will be able to effectively 

communicate with the https://harvestseasonal.com mobile website for purposes of 

comprehending Harvest Seasonal menu selections, ordering/paying for gift cards

online, making reservations, ordering food for delivery or pickup, and inquiring 

and booking private events and catering, and during that time period prior to the 

mobile website being designed to permit individuals with visual impairments to 

effectively communicate, requiring Defendants to provide an alternative method 

for individuals with visual impairments to effectively communicate so that disabled 

individuals are not impeded from obtaining the goods and services made available 

to the public through the mobile website.

e. The Court enter an Order directing Defendants to evaluate and neutralize their
