Slip02

ORLANDO — A Palm Beach County woman is suing the Orange County commissioners, alleging negligence in allowing a dangerous condition stay in the premises and injure the plaintiff.

Amber Korakas filed a complaint Feb. 2 in Orange County Circuit Court against Orange County, also known as Board of County Commissioners of Orange County and Centerplate Hospitality Venture, doing business as Centerplate, alleging failure to maintain its premises in a reasonably safe condition.

According to the complaint, on March 24, 2014, Korakas was a business invitee at defendant premises, 9800 International Drive, Orlando, when she slipped and fell on a slippery substance. Korakas says the plaintiffs created a foreseeable zone of risk, posing a threat and harm to invitees. 

The plaintiff alleges Centerplate failed to exercise reasonable care in the maintenance, inspection, repair, warning, and/or mode of operation of the business premises.

Korakas seeks trial by jury, damages in excess of $15,000, interest and costs of action. She is represented by attorney Joshua D. Ferrano of Lesser, Lesser, Landy & Smith PLLC in West Palm Beach.

Orange County Circuit Court case number 18CA001270
