Attorneys obtained a defense verdict in a premises liability case wherein the plaintiff alleged that she was walking around the swap shop when a canopy set up by a vendor suddenly came down, struck her and knocked her to the ground. She suffered a fractured hip that required surgery. Plaintiff claimed that the owners failed to maintain the property in a reasonably safe condition. The jury deliberated about two hours before returning a verdict that found that the swap shop was not at fault.
