West Virginia Woman Suing Walmart For Injuries Sustained In Slip-And-Fall Accident.

Christine Olsen-Lett, a woman from Clarksburg, West Virginia, has filed a negligence claim against Wal-Mart Stores East LP, doing business as Walmart Supercenter in state of West Virginia. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified damages in her slip and fall claim against Walmart.

According to Olsen-Lett, she was shopping in the Walmart Supercenter on July 26, 2011. As she walked into one of the aisles at defendant’s store at 550 Emily Drive, in Clarksburg, West Virginia, Olsen-Lett allegedly slipped on a clear liquid spilled on the floor. Olsen-Lett suffered serious personal injuries in the slip and fall accident. According to Olsen-Lett’s complaint, Walmart’s employees allowed the liquid to be spilled and remain on the floor for an extended period of time. Olsen-Lett alleges that the employees were negligent in failing to clean up the spill timely and that Walmart is vicariously liable for the employees’ negligence.

Olsen-Lett filed her claim on July 23, 2013 in Circuit Court of Harrison County. Walmart has removed the case to the federal court in the Northern District of Virginia, because it is allegedly “facially apparent” from Olsen-Lett’s complaint that she suffered more than $75,000 in damages – the minimum amount necessary to grant the federal court diversity jurisdiction.
