A woman with a disability claiming she was discriminated against because she was forced to give up her front-row seat at a Pro Bowl game at Aloha Stadium for a wheelchair-accessible seat lost her case Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Honolulu.

The federal jury in Judge J. Michael Seabright’s courtroom found no liability against the state or the NFL in a 2013 incident in which Aloha Stadium staff stopped the woman from getting to her seat and instead provided her with wheelchair-accessible seating, Attorney General Doug Chin said in a statement.

Deb Ritchie, a part-time Waikiki resident, said she plans to appeal. She said she filed the lawsuit because accommodations for those with disabilities are “not supposed to be forced on you.”

Ritchie filed her lawsuit in September 2013, saying she had a cervical neurological condition that made it difficult for her to walk. She was using a wheelchair, but could also move with special crutches and shoes, the lawsuit said.

On the day of the game, staff prohibited Ritchie from using a “sitting technique” to climb down the steps and impeded her from descending the steps slowly with her crutches, the suit said.

Ritchie claimed, among other things, false imprisonment and a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Her lawsuit said the previous year she was transported on the field by golf cart to her seat and she requested the same accommodations for the Pro Bowl game in 2013, but was refused.

Chin’s statement said her request was denied for security and safety concerns.

The day of the game, Aloha Stadium staff stopped Ritchie from descending 60 steps to her seat because she appeared unsteady, creating a danger to herself and to others in the event of an evacuation, the statement said.

Ritchie watched the game from a wheelchair-accessible row that was at the top of the section of seats.

“Today’s verdict clears the state and NFL of all liability in this case,” Chin’s statement said. “A previous trial in 2015 ended in a mistrial after the jury could not reach a unanimous verdict.”
