Kahana Feld is pleased to announce partner Elliott Wright and senior attorney Farrah Ahmed received a Traditional Summary Judgment motion on a premises liability case in the 40th Judicial District Court in Ellis County, Texas. The matter involved a Claimant who slipped and fell in a restaurant and claimed over $100,000 in medical damages. During an intense line of questioning, Kahana Feld attorneys Wright and Ahmed were able to get the Claimant to admit that she saw a well-placed “Caution” sign prior to her fall.
Through the Claimant’s testimony and video evidence, Wright and Ahmed argued that the restaurant adequately warned of a condition as there was a clearly identifiable warning sign in the immediate vicinity of the condition, and the Claimant’s testimony proved that she was in fact adequately warned. The presiding Judge of the court properly awarded the Defendants summary judgment.
