An Arizona woman under Harry Potter’s Wizard World Magic, her grandson ended in an ambulance, after spending a day in the magic world of Harry Potter, An Arizona woman was awarded $7.25 million by a federal court in California.
Earlier this month, a jury found that attorneys in charge of Universal Studios in Hollywood said Pamela Morrison, 74, was leaving Harry Potter and September 2022 Suffered while traveling is prohibited. According to court documents, the harness could not be fixed and then slipped as it stepped on solid ground from the moving sidewalk.
“The belt is still moving, so my foot is on that belt and then…my other foot reaches to the fixed floor and it hits me off my feet.”
During the trial, her attorney Taylor Kruse argued that the fall was caused by the employee’s failure to stop the walking sidewalk and allow the woman to exit the ride in a safe manner, causing her to suffer severe and painful injuries, This temporarily prevented her from using the bathroom independently according to Law360’s report.
Kruse believes it would be a safe, simple and reasonable thing to stop the belt, but Universal City Amusement Park wants to “keep riding anyway, ride anyway” and achieves its 1,800 riders per hour The goal is to report the statutory location.
Most cases depend on fall in seconds of surveillance camera recording.
According to the legal site, Universal Studios’ defense team believes the video shows that Morrison is focused on his grandson, not where she is going, so it’s her fault to fall.
In court filings, the company’s attorneys claimed that Morrison “has not used and exercised his own protection, proper care and precautions in the same or similar circumstances.”
Nevertheless, the jury was not waving and found that the theme park was the cause of the dangerous conditions that led to the Morrison accident.
Ban Choi, a safety expert at the Institute of Risk and Safety Analysis, said the ride was designed to be dangerous because it required people to walk vertically along the moving sidewalk to the fixed floor.
“Enter the moving sidewalk and leave the walking stability even when entering the longitudinal direction/exit of the road of travel,” he wrote in a review of the incident filed in the court. “In view of the plaintiff Morrison’s move sidewalk Walking in a transverse direction while rushing down the moving sidewalk, she will be more unstable in her gait.”
Previous analysis shows that injuries while riding or getting off are common, with about 1 out of 8 accident reports in Southern California theme parks.
After the fall, Morrison was taken to a local hospital for an ambulance and incurred huge medical expenses. According to court documents, she had a fractured lower back and had a noticeable tear in some muscles around her hips, which helped with movement and stability.
Court documents show that the jury awarded her $250,000 in economic losses, $2 million in past non-economic damages and $5 million in future non-economic damages.
