News peg — Troy Wilkes’s account: an October 2026 Swarovski/Hillsdale access dispute involving police and a trespass-related notice. Police records and the notice itself are not publicly verified in this package.

2006 Federal complaint → 2007 FTA finding → 2008 primary BART letter supports SamTrans ADA ParaTransit eligibility; RediWheels qualification Troy-reported → 2022 DMV review/reinstatement → 2025 DOJ response artifact → 2026 reported store dispute and Supreme Court petition in preparation; no filing or grant asserted.

START WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S OWN RECORDS.

  1. FTA · October 15, 2007
    FTA ordered actual accommodation in BART concourses and controlled outside areas, subject to fact-based conditions. It accepted platform/heavy-rail restrictions and reserved disability, mobility-aid classification and fundamental-alteration questions.
  2. DMV · June 17, 2022
    Order records motorcycle and Class C operation using inline skates. This is a scoped driving record.
  3. DOJ · December 19, 2025
    Preserved response artifact has a header but no substantive body. No merits determination is attributed to it.
  4. Swarovski / Hillsdale · October 2026
    Troy’s account; corroboration pending. Mall common-area accommodation does not automatically extend to tenant stores.
  5. Medical + accommodation history
    Existing 2005 physician letter, redacted 2001 Hillsdale letter and 2026 management extract; remaining source gaps labeled.
  6. Scientific evidence · governed public record
    55 same-day experiments: Mall skating → pain-limited walking → PT skating. N-of-1; sensors do not measure pain.

How can a person obtain an actual federal accommodation directive in 2007 and still face repeated disputes over the same disability-related mobility function nineteen years later?
