You are not required to accept your former position with your employer after filing a wrongful termination lawsuit with your employer under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). However as far as mitigating any loss of income claim, accepting it back might be a wise idea. I suggest that you consult with a labor law attorney as to the pros and cons of accepting or not accepting your former position back.
