On June 17th, it is reported that a woman named Loretta Boston filed a lawsuit against Target Corporation in Madison County Circuit Court. According to Boston, she suffered injuries after her slip and fall accident at the well-known retail store. She claims she slipped on wet carpet and fell on May 7, 2009.
Her lawsuit states that, "the Plaintiff was moving from the carpeted to the non-carpeted surface, her foot slid on the carpeting and onto the adjacent area, causing Plaintiff to fall to the floor." Boston asserts that because of the accident and her injuries, she has experienced continual pain and suffering. She also says that she has incurred medical bills and lost her normal quality of life.
Boston blames Target for causing her slip and fall accident. She said that the store and its employees should not have allowed the carpeting to remain slick and slipper after cleaning. Boston also says that the store failed to warn customers of the dangerous condition.
She is currently seeking $50,000 in damages.
