In a gripping legal battle that underscores the importance of safety and accountability, Claudia Mireles has filed a lawsuit against 285 Partners, LLC, operating as Palo Blanco Ranch. The case was filed on December 6, 2024, in the District Court of Harris County, Texas. The lawsuit centers around severe injuries sustained by Luis Herrera while on the defendant's property.
The complaint alleges that Luis Herrera suffered paralyzing injuries after falling from a hunting blind on the premises owned by 285 Partners, LLC. Claudia Mireles, acting individually and as Herrera's representative, accuses the defendant of negligence and premises liability. According to the petition, "Defendant 285 Partners created and maintained an unreasonably dangerous condition on its Palo Blanco Ranch premises." The plaintiff asserts that inadequate safety measures were in place at the time of the incident and that there was a failure to warn about unsafe conditions.
The plaintiffs are seeking over $1 million in damages for physical pain, mental anguish, disfigurement, impairment, medical expenses, and loss of earning capacity for Luis Herrera. Additionally, Claudia Mireles is claiming damages for loss of consortium and household services due to her husband's incapacitation. The petition also includes a request for a temporary restraining order to prevent any alteration or destruction of evidence related to the incident.
Represented by Robert E. Ammons and A. J. Ammon from The Ammons Law Firm L.L.P., the plaintiffs are determined to hold 285 Partners accountable for their alleged negligence. They argue that if immediate action is not taken by the court to preserve evidence, it could result in irreparable harm to their case. This lawsuit not only seeks financial compensation but also aims to highlight critical safety lapses that could have far-reaching implications.
The case is being presided over by Judge Marilyn Burgess under Case ID 2024-85201 in Court 333.
