135,000.00 dollar settlement | Tampa, Florida | Hillsborough County
A man slipped and fell on the last step going down the stairwell of his apartment complex and injured his back when the bolts holding the wooden stair in place gave way.  A lawsuit was filed alleging the stairwell was negligently maintained because the wooden stairs were old and rotting.  The man underwent a laser discectomy surgery of the l-4 l-5 disc in his lumbar spine.  The apartment complex alleged it was not possible to herniate a disc falling such a short distance and that his injuries were the result of the bending an lifting requirements of his job.  The judge declared a mistrial during the second day of trial.  The case settled just before the new trial was to begin.
