HOUSTON — A woman is suing the owners of her Houston apartment complex after a ceiling collapse caused her to suffer injuries.
Margie Robbins filed a complaint April 12 in Harris County District Court against Savs LP doing business as Amritta Apartments alleging negligence.
According to her complaint, on Nov. 27, 2020, Robbins was at the Amritta Apartments on West Airport Boulevard in Houston where she resides when the ceiling collapsed and fell. She alleges the ceiling fell on her and caused her to suffer injuries including aggravation of a pre-existing condition. Robbins claims the defendants were negligent in failing to provide a safe property by not properly installing, maintaining and inspecting the unit ceiling.
She further claims the defendants knew or should have known the dangerous condition existed. Robbins also claims in addition to her physical injuries, she has suffered mental anguish and has incurred medical care expenses to the defendants' "wrongful conduct."
Robbins seeks monetary relief, interest, trial by jury and all other just relief. She is represented by Annie Basu and Jordan Sloane of The Basu Law Firm in Houston.
