If they arrived late, (especially 25 minutes late) they would have to take whatever seating was available, or wait for the next show if it were up to me.
If they complain that because they are handicapped, it takes them longer to arrive, yadda yadda... I would inform them that the showtimes are not exactly a "trade secret" and can be found, and planned for, any time of the day.
I would never ask a paying customer to move, especially after the movie has started, "reserved" seating or not. All seats should be reserved for those who arrive on time first and foremost!
These of course, are my own personal opinions and not the chain I work for's policy.

All seating is "first come, first serve" That being said, if you are in a wheelchair, there is almost always a designated wheelchair space open. I've never sold all 4 during a show. However, often times the "accompanying" seats are taken. In that case, it's just like anyone else, your desired seating is not together, so split up or don't watch the show. That being said, if the show has not yet begun, I will ask the person in the accompanying seat if they would mind moving, but would never force them to do so. If they do move, I will usually reward them with a raincheck for their cooperation
