密歇根州法院命令Inkster在会议上阅读人的评论. Michigan court orders Inkster to read comments from paralyzed man at meetings.

密歇根州上诉法院裁定,因特克斯特市议会必须大声宣读查尔斯·布莱克韦尔 (Charles Blackwell) 的公开评论. The Michigan Court of Appeals ruled that the Inkster City Council must read aloud public comments submitted by Charles Blackwell, a paralyzed man who cannot attend meetings. 尽管有过先前的安排, 但市政府违反了残疾人公民权利法. The decision came after a lower court found the city violated a disability civil rights act by stopping the practice despite previous accommodations. 法院表示允许布莱克韦尔的声音被听到是合理的, 并为确保残疾人能够有意义地参与地方政府创造先例. The court stated that allowing Blackwell's voice to be heard was reasonable and sets a precedent for ensuring people with disabilities can meaningfully participate in local government.
