Man who slipped in McDonald's sought more than $2 million in damages
A man who slipped near a wet floor sign at a Canberra McDonald's has been awarded nearly $15,000 in compensation after initially seeking more than $2 million. The man slipped but did not fall, and the judge found that while the defendant had been negligent in not ensuring the sign was prominent enough, the injured man did not take reasonable care for his own safety. The case will continue in September for arguments about costs.
