HOUSTON — A Houston Texans fan is suing the owners of NRG Stadium, alleging she was caused to trip and fall over a structure that was placed negligently.

Maria Frank filed a complaint July 6 in Harris County District Court against Harris County Sports & Convention Corporation, SMG and Aramark Sports & Entertainment Services LLC, alleging negligence.

According to the complaint, Frank was at NRG Stadium in Houston on Sept. 10, 2017, for a Texans football game. As Frank approached the entrance to Section 134/135, the suit says, she tripped and fell over a structure that apparently covered a large cable. The plaintiff alleges she sustained significant and debilitating injuries, plus pain and mental anguish.

Frank seeks monetary relief between $200,000 and $1 million, attorney fees, court costs, trial by jury, interest and all other just relief. She is represented by attorney Christopher C. Garcia of Chris Garcia Law Group P.C. in Houston.

Harris County District Court case number 2019-45801
