Vincent Antonio Pecchia has filed a lawsuit against Houston First Corporation and For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST) in the District Court of Harris County, Texas. The case, bearing the ID 2024-25633, was filed on April 20, 2024.
Pecchia alleges that he suffered serious injuries due to a dangerous condition at an event held at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. The plaintiff's lawyer claims that Pecchia slipped and fell on a sticky spilled liquid while exiting through crash doors. This incident occurred on April 23, 2022.
The plaintiff is seeking monetary relief over $250,000 but not more than $1,000,000 for his injuries. He argues that both defendants knew or should have known about the dangerous condition that led to his fall.
