GALVESTON – A Jefferson County resident alleges she was injured at a La Marque apartment complex in a fall caused by a pothole.

Trudi Mills filed a complaint on June 28 in the Galveston County District Court against G Breeze Apartments LLC alleging breach of duty.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on May 23, 2017, she was a tenant at the defendant's apartment complex and was injured when she stepped into a pothole and fell.

She alleges she sustained severe, permanent and disabling injuries resulting in medical care and expenses, pain, mental anguish, disfigurement and loss of earnings as a result of the fall. 

The plaintiff holds G Breeze Apartments LLC responsible because the defendant allegedly failed to maintain the apartment's premises in a reasonably safe manner.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks monetary relief of more than $200,000 but not more than $1 million and such other and further relief to which she may be justly entitled. She is represented by Dan Ducote Jr. of Moore Landrey LLP in Beaumont.

Galveston County District Court case number 18-CV-0850
