Lauren Zink (Associate-New York), assisted by Eugene Boulé (Partner-New York), obtained summary judgment on behalf of our client, a company that produced a four-day, three-night band concert event at a hotel in Mexico. Our client sold tickets to the concert and hotel accommodations to the plaintiff, a Manhattan resident. After checking into his room, the plaintiff left to have dinner, and on the way he slipped on the floor of the outdoor lobby due to a wet condition he did not recall noticing when he first arrived. He fractured his kneecap and had to fly back to New York for treatment. Relying on the production company’s written agreements and testimony of its CEO, Lauren established that our client had no responsibility for the condition of the hotel, despite having employees at the hotel for guest check-in and transportation. In addition the Supreme Court of New York, New York County agreed with Lauren’s argument that the plaintiff had not demonstrated that our client had notice of a dangerous condition. The hotel defendant was separately represented and was dismissed because the hotel was owned and managed by different subsidiaries of the hotel company.
