Woman Sues After Slipping on Wood Floor at Roller Rink

In frivolous lawsuit news, a Texas woman is suing a roller skating rink in Deer Park, Texas, after she slipped on the wood floor during a wedding there and injured her back and knee cap. The plaintiffs' petition states, "As plaintiff entered the roller rink to attend the halftime wedding, she stepped off the carpet onto the slick wooden floor of the skating rink, slipped and fell, fracturing her patella and vertebra."

She claims the business is at fault for failing to continually have the premises inspected for dangerous conditions or activities, failing to remedy the dangerous condition or activity that it knew was present or should have known was present, failing to warn people such as the plaintiff of the dangerous condition or activity, failing to warn of looming danger and for allowing weddings on a slick wooden roller derby floor when patrons were not properly protected as they stepped off the carpeting.
