HOUSTON — A woman is claiming negligence after slipping on the front walkway of a Houston Popeyes and suffering serious injuries.
Linda Geiger filed a complaint May 24 in Harris County District Court against Z&H Foods Inc., alleging negligence.
According to Geiger's complaint, she was leaving the Popeyes Lousiana Restaurant on North Shepherd Road in Houston on Dec. 19, 2019. She claims that she slipped on "fluid or grease" that was on the walkway just outside the door, fell and suffered wrist fractures which required a plate, eight screws, splint and "a large foam elevator" to stabilize.
Geiger alleges the defendants were negligent for failing to inspect or give warnings about dangerous condition. She also alleges the defendants failed to keep their premises, specifically the front walkway, in a safe condition.
Geiger seeks monetary relief between $250,000 and $1 million, interest, trial by jury and all other just relief. She is represented by Ronald Lovett of The Lovett Law Firm in Katy.
