This is pretty common. Happened a few times when I worked LP for Lowe's. The retards usually STFU and went home real fast when we told them that I just pulled the video, and they are welcome to come and watch it. A few people legit tripped over something that shouldn't have been there, but the majority tripped/slipped on absolutely nothing and I assume were just looking for a pay day.

As said, you will sit in court and when the case is called and the defense sees you, they will ask for a continuance. Over and over until you don't show.

There was liquid on the floor. She fell.
She took a while to get up, apparently looking around to see if anyone had seen it happen. Looking around is common enough when someone falls; They are embarrassed and likely don't want people to have seen it happen. I'm rather sensitive myself about being seen as clumsy and vulnerable. Maybe the store should make sure they don't let liquid accumulate on the floors. Maybe she should expect there to be hazards everywhere she goes. Hmmm. Walking around...play stupid games, get stupid prizes? |

There was nothing leaking from the shelves. There weren't any broken or punctured items on the shelf. I don't see that there was anything that the store did that negligently placed this liquid on the floor. Someone spilled it or put it there for another purpose. |

My mom slipped in a Target store, had to have an ambulance take her to the ER for a broken arm. Target never called to offer their apologies, and when we asked to review the security footage we got the old "it's against corporate policy", and never heard from them again. The slip occurred 10 feet from their snack bar, and her and my daughter stated the floor was oily in that spot. We all knew target fucked up somehow, but what are you gonna do? It was dry outside, and my mom was wearing walking shoes.

Had similar stunts pulled on me when I was actually a member of the world .
Sued many times . Would wind up paying them $500. and have them sign a release . The characters usually started out wanting $ 10,000 , Just ain't worth going to court . It becomes a money thing . Lawyers are expensive . Savannah , Ga . was the absolute worst for scams and shop lifting . gd |

Mom slipped on a snail at a bigbox store's garden department. The ball on top of her femur tried hard to snap off. I think it only broke half way off. The clerk walked over and said, "just get up." Asshole. He then concedes that the snails WERE a problem. Ambulance scraped her up, and some doc put in a few hollow 3" titanium bone screws.
After some months(?) she had some or all the screws taken out. They sit in the China cabinet in her den. They are beautifully made, and on closer inspection, you can see on them where the doc cammed the hex wrench out a few times, installing them. I don't believe we sued, I think they settled. She would much rather have had an intact hip, than ANY sack of cash. |

When I managed an Autozone, we had more than one occasion of people grabbing something off the isle, walking around, and the squirting it on the floor and slipping on it. One really clever group of people came in and separated at the door, and one went and picked up a liquid item from the shelf, and walked down an isle and squirted it, and then one of the other guys slipped in it. Then the others and the first one claimed to have witnessed the accident.
Cameras caught them though. lol |

With your tip-off, corporate will probably hire an investigator to record her at home and around the community. If she does anything that shows that she is not injured, that video will make its way into the settlement meeting and she will leave with NOTHING. A former girlfriend worked in a law office that did this all of the time. It was crazy some of the stories she came home to tell. |
