KROIN, NICOLA v. UNIVERSAL CITY

Date Filed: 11/3/2015

Plaintiff Residence: Unknown

Accident Date: April 18, 2014

Alleged Accident Location: Universal Studio’s Marvel Super Hero Island in Orlando

Alleged Facts: As the plaintiff was walking in an ordinary, customary and foreseeable manner, she slipped and fell on a wet metal medallion built into the cement guest walkway at Universal’s Marvel Super Hero Island.

Liability Allegations: At the time and place of her fall, multiple Universal employees were in the immediate vicinity of the condition; yet none of them, gave any warning or took any corrective action with regard to the condition. At all times material hereto, Universal had a duty to reasonably maintain the walkways located at the Premises for business invitees, including Plaintiff. Universal breached its duty to Plaintiff by failing to inspect the area where the accident occurred to ensure that it was in a reasonably safe condition for its intended and foreseeable uses, to wit, walking, and free from all defects and conditions that would render it dangerous and unsafe for Plaintiff, or present an unreasonable risk of harm to her in her lawful use of the premises. Universal also breached its duty to Plaintiff by failing to adequately warn her that the area in which the accident occurred was in a dangerous or unreasonably safe condition and posed a danger for harm during ordinary use, to wit, walking. Alternatively, if Plaintiff’s fall was solely caused by a transitory substance, pursuant to Section 768.0755, Florida Statutes, Defendant had constructive knowledge of the dangerous condition and should have taken action to remedy it because: (a) The dangerous condition existed for such a length of time that, in the exercise of ordinary care, Defendant should have known of the condition; or (b) The condition occurred with regularity and was therefore foreseeable.
