A slippery slope: Does the Mode-of-Operation Rule Actually Benefit Plaintiffs in Slip-and-Fall Cases?
Rocky Mountain law journal, Vol.5, pp.40-59
Autumn 2016
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to compare plaintiff and defendant win-rates of the two primary legal standards used to evaluate slip-and-fall cases. To date, the only analysis used to determine the impact of the different legal standards has relied on normative analysis or anecdotal evidence. This paper seeks to investigate empirically whether litigation outcomes differ between the two legal standards.
