In the District Court of Harris County, Texas, Olivia Ramirez Romero has filed a lawsuit against Walmart Inc. The case, bearing the ID 2024-25362 and dated April 19, 2024, accuses Walmart of negligence leading to personal injury.
Romero alleges that on April 6, 2024, she slipped and fell on a hazardous substance resembling cream or lotion at Walmart store #3584 located at 5405 South Rice Avenue, Houston. This incident resulted in significant injuries to her legs and lower back. She argues that Walmart failed to maintain cleanliness standards and neglected to place cautionary signage around the hazardous area.
The plaintiff is seeking damages for her injuries under premises liability. She asserts that Walmart had a duty of care to ensure the safety of its premises which it failed to uphold by not inspecting, repairing or warning customers about the dangerous condition.
