PITTSBURGH – A recently-filed lawsuit alleges that a plaintiff’s severe back injuries suffered at a Pittsburgh Honda dealership were allegedly the result of that same dealership’s defective floor condition.
Joseph Kunz of Munhall filed suit in the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas on Jan. 15 versus Dean, Inc. (doing business as “Dean Honda”) and Raymond Family Real Estate Truth, both of Pittsburgh.
On Oct. 11, 2016, Kunz claimed he was on the defendant’s premises, when the lawsuit states he was caused to fall due to an unspecified liquid on the floor at or near the service area, resulting in severe, permanent and personal injuries.
Kunz supposedly sustained serious back injuries including a disc bulge and protrusion, scrapes, lacerations, contusions, and bruising.
The plaintiff claims the defendants failed to exercise proper care over the premises, failed to inspect, monitor, repair or warn of the defective and dangerous floor condition in question, in addition to other charges.
For one count of negligence, the plaintiff is seeking damages in excess of $35,000, plus all costs and other relief this Court deems just.
The plaintiff is represented by Marc I. Simon of Simon & Simon, in Pittsburgh.
