BALTIMORE (AP) — A federal court has dismissed all claims against Regal Cinemas Inc. in a lawsuit stemming from the asphyxiation death last year of a Maryland man with Down syndrome.

A U.S. District Court judge in Baltimore ruled Thursday that the Knoxville, Tennessee-based company didn’t violate the Americans with Disabilities Act by asking three Frederick County sheriff’s deputies, moonlighting as mall security guards, to remove Robert Ethan Saylor from a Frederick movie theater. Saylor didn’t have a ticket for a second viewing of a film.
