The lawsuit also included the board that DeSantis appointed to handle Disney's Florida property.
But on Jan.
31, U.S. District Judge Allen Winsor tossed out the lawsuit, saying Disney had no standing or jurisdiction to sue DeSantis.
.
Its alleged injury … is its operating
under a board it cannot control.
That injury would exist whether or
not the governor controlled the board, U.S. District Judge Allen Winsor, via ruling.
Disney issued a statement after the ruling.
This is an important case with
serious implications for the rule
of law, and it will not end here, Disney, via statement.
If left unchallenged, this would set a
dangerous precedent and give license
to states to weaponize their official
powers to punish the expression of
political viewpoints they disagree with.
, Disney, via statement.
We are determined to press
forward with our case, Disney, via statement

Disney to Ban Visitors , Who Lie About Disabilities.
The Walt Disney Company says that there has
been an uptick in fraudulent disability claims at
its parks from people attempting to gain Disability Access Services (DAS), 'New York Post' reports. .
On April 15, the company said that anyone found to have lied about a disability to obtain these services will be banned from Disney parks permanently. .
If it is determined that any of the
statements a Guest made in the
process of obtaining DAS are not true,
the Guest will be permanently barred
from entering the Walt Disney World
Resort and the Disneyland Resort, The Walt Disney Company, via statement.
Any previously purchased Annual
Passes, Magic Key passes, tickets and
other park products and services...
will be forfeited and not refunded, The Walt Disney Company, via statement.
DAS allows people with disabilities
to skip waiting in lines.
The company's website previously indicated
that the service was for “guests who have
difficulty tolerating extended waits in a
conventional queue environment due to a disability.”.
The website has since been updated to read, , “DAS is intended to accommodate a small
percentage of Guests who, due to a developmental disability like autism or similar, are unable to wait in a conventional queue for an extended period or time.”.
At Walt Disney World, “in-person registration will no longer be available at theme park Guest Relations locations starting May 20, 2024,” Disney said.
Instead, DAS registrations will
take place via virtual video chat. .
However, at Disneyland, guests can
apply for DAS via either virtual chat or an
"accessibility services" window beginning June 18. .
Anyone who currently has DAS will be required to re-apply, 'New York Post' reports.

On April 16, Disney+ announced that a remastered version of Michael Lindsay-Hogg's 1970 documentary will stream on its platform beginning May 8, The Verge reports. .
The film chronicles the Fab Four recording their album, 'Let It Be,' before breaking up soon after. .
Lindsay-Hogg said that when the band split,
it "very much darkened the perception of
the film" when it was originally released.
But when he saw Peter Jackson's work on
'The Beatles: Get Back,' he was motivated
to allow the re-release of his own film. .
Jackson's Park Road Post Production will remaster original footage for 'Let It Be' as well. .
AI tools will be used to remaster audio.
Jackson said that he is "absolutely thrilled" about the new project and considers 'Let It Be' and 'Get Back' to be "one epic story, finally completed after five decades.".
The two projects support
and enhance each other, Peter Jackson, via statement.
'Let It Be' is the climax of
'Get Back,' while 'Get Back' provides
a vital missing context for 'Let It Be.' , Peter Jackson, via statement.

'Get Back' and it’s only right that
his original movie has the last
word...looking and sounding
far better than it did in 1970, Peter Jackson, via statement
