Civil Rights - Master and Servant - Employment at Will - Discharge by Reason of Handicap or Disability
The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has held that a job applicant not hired or an at-will employee discharged on the basis of handicap or disability does not have a non-statutory cause of action for wrongful discharge based on the public policy exception to the employment at will doctrine since adequate remedy is available under the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act.

This desirable counselor quality is quite distinct from the conscious choice of counselor aspiration: whether to strategically move toward a particular change target, or to intentionally maintain neutrality withregard to change goal (the latter being referred to as equipoise). Both choices would involve equanimity, and both require intentional, conscious and skillful attention to the interpersonal dynamics of change talk that have been elucidated through the development of and research on MI

Subsequent clinical experience, however, suggests ways in which the spirit and method of MI may be useful throughout processes of change. Implications for a volitional psychotherapy are considered, with additional discussion of clinical applications of decisional balance
