AI summary
The Full Bench appeal concerned a fall in N1 City Mall on 1 May 2014 after the plaintiff slipped in a spillage described as melted ice cream. The court dismissed Broll’s appeal in respect of its liability to the plaintiff, upheld the plaintiff’s appeal, and amended the order to make the first to fourth defendants jointly and severally liable for 100% of the plaintiff’s proven damages and costs.
This appears to concern liability findings, contributory negligence, and costs in a mall slip and fall matter, and may be relevant to property managers, mall owners, and cleaning contractors.
