Tom Crisham, David Sullivan and Michael Faley successfuly obtained summary judgment on behalf of a health club owner and management company in a premises liability claim. The plaintiff claimed to have developed an extreme case of RSD after a stack of chairs fell on her ankle.
The Court agreed with Crisham & Kubes that the accident was not reasonably foreseeable and that any dangerous condition posed by the chairs was not in place for a sufficient length of time so as to impose a duty of care.
