MEDIA — A woman is suing the Redevelopment Authority of the County of Delaware, a premises controller, citing negligence.

Denise Williams filed a complaint on Oct. 1 in the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas against the Redevelopment Authority of the County of Delaware, alleging the premises controller failed to properly maintain the sidewalk around its premises.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on April 10 she was at defendant's premises at 880 Main St. in Darby when she was caused to roll her ankle on an uneven sidewalk. She sustained serious and permanent injuries and was caused to suffer physical and emotional pain and lost wages, the suit says. The plaintiff holds Redevelopment Authority of the County of Delaware responsible because the defendant allegedly failed to provide sufficient warning of the dangerous nature of the sidewalk and failed to barricade the same.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment in her favor in an amount of more than $50,000, plus costs and such other just and proper relief. She is represented by Marc Simon of Simon & Simon PC in Philadelphia.
