Crystal Jones filed a lawsuit against the Philadelphia Housing Authority and the City of Philadelphia for negligence after she slipped and fell on a walkway on a Philadelphia playground on August 22, 2012, resulting in serious personal injuries.
)
Jones claims that she fell due to a dangerous condition on the playground walkway, which was caused by the city’s failure to inspect the walkway and failure to keep the property safe. A poorly maintained drain is the specific cause of her fall, according to Jones. As a result of her fall, Jones suffered “severe injuries to her leg, ankle and back, including a herniated disk.” She is seeking medical expenses totaling over $1,500.00, interest, court costs, and attorney’s fees.
