Case Details
Texas Supreme Court reviewed an appeal from a $6 million personal injury verdict in a case stemming from a supermarket fall. The plaintiff was hurt after his foot got lodged in the open side of a wooden pallet used to transport and hold watermelons. Canales claimed that the pallet constituted an unreasonably dangerous condition, and the store's failure to mitigate the risk caused his injuries.
Additional Notes
The court ruled that the victim was not entitled to recovery because factual evidence indicated that Pay and Save’s use of the pallet was extremely common. The panel noted that there were no other similar incidents reported at any grocery store, and that the lack of any regulations concerning this type of pallet use was further evidence that the condition was not unreasonably dangerous.
