Cal. Civ. Code § 54 — BLIND AND OTHER PHYSICALLY DISABLED PERSONS is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

(b) For purposes of this section:
(1) “Disability” means any mental or physical disability as defined in Section 12926 of the Government Code.
(2) “Medical condition” has the same meaning as defined in subdivision (h) of Section 12926 of the Government Code.
(c) A violation of the right of an individual under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-336) also constitutes a violation of this section.
