Fifth Circuit Stands Up for Slip-and-Fall Trial.

E. Grady Jolly, Fifth Circuit Judge, writing for a panel including Judge James L. Dennis and Senior Judge Harold R. DeMoss, Jr. of that court holds that a trial court should not have granted summary judgment in a slip-and-fall case, where there was some evidence that the "wet floor" sign that the slipped on might have been there long after the floor had dried and that other actions of the defendant might possibly show negligence.
