San Francisco prosecutors on Friday released an interactive map of small businesses that have been the target of alleged fraudulent lawsuits arguing the businesses are violating the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Boudin and Gascon are seeking to stop Potter Handy from filing more suits, civil penalties and to recover the money the firm collected in the settlements and return it to the business owners.
