Plaintiff alleges negligence against a fitness center following a slip and fall incident. Jean Trujillo filed a complaint on April 25, 2025, in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, against Klub Fitness.
The lawsuit stems from an incident that occurred on May 10, 2024, at Klub Fitness located at 5946 Fairmont Parkway in Pasadena, Texas. According to the petition filed by Jean Trujillo, the plaintiff was lawfully present at the gym when he slipped on a piece of soap left on the shower floor. Trujillo asserts that as the owner and operator of the premises, Klub Fitness had a duty to maintain safe conditions for its patrons. The complaint accuses Klub Fitness of several acts of negligence including failing to regularly inspect the premises for hazards, failing to provide adequate training to employees to ensure safety, and failing to warn customers about potential dangers such as slippery floors.
The plaintiff claims that these failures directly resulted in his injuries and subsequent damages. "Defendant breached its duty by failing to take reasonable measures to correct or warn of unreasonably dangerous conditions," states the petition. As a result of this alleged negligence, Trujillo is seeking compensation for various damages including past and future loss of earnings, medical expenses both incurred and anticipated, pain and suffering endured both previously and ongoingly, mental anguish suffered in the past and expected in the future, as well as any other damages proven during trial.
In terms of relief sought from the court, Trujillo is requesting monetary compensation within jurisdictional limits exceeding $250,000 but not more than $1 million. Additionally, he seeks recovery of all court costs incurred during litigation pursuant to Rule 131 of Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. The plaintiff also requests pre-judgment interest at maximum allowable rates starting from when amounts became due until judgment is rendered; post-judgment interest until full payment; along with exemplary damages where applicable.
