If sombebody falls on the street because the floor is frozen can he sue or not?
If somebody falls on the street because the floor is frozen and the ambulance take hin can he sue the city or not? Just curiosity i saw a man falling on the street and i was wondering about this, because it could have happened to anybody. What do you think?
the problem would be proving the city was negligent and responsible for the fall- adverse weather conditions are ‘acts of nature’ and would be very difficult to prosecute.
you can pretty much sue whomever you please (with a few exceptions) but that doesn’t mean you will win the case- most judges would throw a ‘suit’ like this out without hearing it.
If it is a public street, then no. He can sue the town/city, but no lawyer or judge would take such a case. If the street is a private street that the owners have neglected to salt/sand/do anything to prevent injury to others and he has permission to be on that street, then yes, he can sue.
