D'Amico v. Galati Supermarkets (Finch) Limited [2002] O.J. No. 4465 (S.C.J.) 

Date of Decision: November 19, 2002

Case Summary:
We successfully defended a grocery store chain in a claim brought by a customer who had slipped and fell and alleged the store was liable pursuant to the Occupiers’ Liability Act. The Court held that although it was conceded that the fall occurred, as there was a reasonable system of inspection at the time, the store could not be held liable. The action was therefore dismissed with costs.
