Erratum

An article in the October 16 issue on a ruling in the New York case Disability Advocates Inc. v. David A. Paterson incorrectly said that the judge's ruling rejected as a violation of the Americans With Disability Act the state's practice of placing nonviolent mentally ill individuals in nursing homes. In fact, the ruling applied to adult board-and-care homes, not nursing homes.
