Settlement

Thomas Simeone led a class action on behalf of deaf and hard-of-hearing Washington, D.C., moviegoers, obtaining a 2004 federal court settlement that required AMC Entertainment and Loews Cineplex to install rear-window captioning systems, giving the D.C. deaf community broader access to captioned first-run films than any comparable market in the country.
