Question

A carton of eggs broke onto the floor in the dairy section, making the floor slippery. Little Johnny slipped, fell, and hit his head on the floor, causing a cut and mild concussion. The grocery store incurs___________liability for his injuries.
a) premises.
b) operational.
c) professional.
d) product.

Answer 1

Answer:

premises

Explanation:

The grocery store incurs premises liability for his injuries. This form of liability is a legal concept that has to do with personal injuries that have been caused by some form of unsafe or defective conditions on someone's property, usually due to negligence. This is exactly what happened in this scenario since it was negligent of the store to not have cleaned up the mess made by the broken eggs which ultimately caused Johnny to fall.
