“Outstanding service. They were extremely careful delivering the extra large container into our driveway.” -- A. L. GARNER
The slippery condition referenced above was known by defendants to exist for an unreasonable amount of time, the slipper condition was allowed to occur due to defendants’ knowingly utilizing a dumpster which leaked, or otherwise drained liquids thrown into the dumpster. The defendants unreasonably failed to take preventative measures when using the subject dumpsters referenced above, which would have been reasonably calculated to catching or otherwise absorbing the slippery conditions created by liquids leaking from the subject dumpster,” the suit states.The plaintiffs believe the defendants failed to maintain the subject premises in a safe and reasonable manner, failed to warn persons, such as the subject plaintiff, that the condition was a slipping hazard and failed to properly train, instruct and/or hire employees and/or third-persons to monitor the conditions of the area where the plaintiff slipped and fell, among other charges.As a result, Foster suffered unspecified permanent and significant injuries, which may result in pain and suffering, disfigurement, loss of life’s pleasures, medical bills and medical treatment.For counts of negligence from Foster and loss of consortium from his spouse, Lutz, the plaintiffs are seeking damages in excess of $50,000, plus costs of suit and interest herein.The plaintiffs are represented by Joseph T.

Ohio's congressional districts after the 1980 and 1990 censuses; a Democratic Ohio House and Republican state Senate balanced each other. That changed with one-party rule of both chambers. After 2010's census, the GOP-crafted 2011 redistricting drew 16 Ohio congressional districts that elected 12 Republicans to the U.S. House, but just four Democrats - in a state that twice backed Democrat Barack Obama for president.Given the GOP's advantages, the inevitable question is why Republicans would want to (appear to) "reform" a mechanism that's worked so well - for them. The easy answer is that they want it to continue working for them by trying to pre-empt alternatives.Voters in the state have shown they want reform. In 2015, with more than 71 percent voting "yes," Ohioans created a bipartisan Redistricting Commission to redraw General Assembly districts. The Fair Districts = Fair Elections initiative also would assign congressional redistricting to the Redistricting Commission. That's smart. State Senate Republicans' bid via SJR 5 to solidify gerrymandering in the guise of reform is not smart and should be abandoned. Voters deserve real reforms, not cynical shell games.About our editorials: Editorials express the view of the editorial board of cleveland.com and The Plain Dealer -- the senior leadership and editorial-writing staff.

The challenge is finding a balance that encourages water conservation while not putting employers out of business. The new regulations will generate more public input. If approved, the rules would be applied statewide beginning in April of next year. In the meantime, it will be up to local water agencies to enforce the rules against wasting water. AlertMe...

We practice and train for it as part of our normal thing but, as you can see, they are difficult. We have to pull lines all the way down to the end of the pier so that they can get into the ship.”Fire Continues to Burn on Boat in San Diego BayBy Sunday, SDFD spokesperson Monica Munoz said officials had measured the ship's temperature at 100 degrees and, as far as they could see, the fire was contained.Munoz said investigators were having a tough time tracking down the current owners of the ship, as their information was not found in the Coast Guard's database. The ship had been docked at the harbor for several months.span id="embeddedVideo04" class="embedded video C" data-cid="44868... (NBC 7 San Diego)
Interim PSC Commissioner Damon Baldone, R-Houma, said the new rule balances the free market competition with the need to protect the public.“Just because you own a truck doesn’t mean you should be hauling hazardous waste,” Baldone said. “But this is good start for companies that do have the resources to enter the marketplace.”#ndn-video-player-3.ndn_embedded .ndn_floatContainer { margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 20px; }...
