Text: 23 The Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits employment discrimination against a qualified individual with a disability because of the disability of such individual. 42 U.S.C. § 12112(a). The Act also requires employers to make reasonable accommodations to the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified individual with a disability.... 42 U.S.C. § 12112(b)(5)(A). There is no dispute that alcoholism is a disability within the protection of the ADA. We conclude, however, that the district court properly distinguished between Mararri's conduct (violating the terms of the L.C.A.) and his alcoholic condition. Thus, he was not terminated for being an alcoholic. 24 Upon de novo review of the entire record, and after carefully considering the plaintiff's arguments, we have determined that the district court correctly granted summary judgment in favor of the defendant. Accordingly, the judgment is AFFIRMED.
