Jensen Callaway, acting as the legal guardian of a minor identified as L.C., has filed a lawsuit against a fitness company and its manager, alleging negligence that resulted in injury. The complaint was lodged on January 23, 2025, in the Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County, Florida, naming LTF Club Operations Company, Inc., doing business as Life Time, and an unnamed manager referred to as John Doe as defendants.
The case revolves around an incident that occurred on August 8, 2024. According to the complaint, L.C. was at the Life Time facility located at Lake Victoria Gardens Avenue in Palm Beach Gardens for an art class but was instead directed by staff to use a trampoline. This diversion allegedly led to injuries sustained by L.C., prompting her guardian to seek damages exceeding $50,000. Jensen Callaway claims that Life Time failed in its duty of care by not adhering to reasonable safety standards for children’s activities and failing to properly train employees regarding trampoline use.
The lawsuit accuses Life Time of several negligent acts including failing to follow reasonable standards of care for children's services, not implementing safe practices for classes and trampolines, and neglecting to inform parents about activity changes. Furthermore, it alleges that these failures directly resulted in significant physical and emotional harm to L.C., including pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life.
In addition to targeting the corporation itself, Callaway's complaint also singles out John Doe, the manager responsible for overseeing operations at the time of the incident. The suit asserts that John Doe neglected his duty by not conducting regular safety inspections or taking necessary precautions to ensure minors were engaged only in authorized activities with parental consent. It is claimed that his oversight contributed significantly to creating unsafe conditions leading up to L.C.'s injury.
Callaway is seeking judgment against both defendants for negligence resulting in bodily harm with long-term consequences such as disability and mental anguish. The relief sought includes compensation for medical expenses and other associated costs along with interest.
Representing Jensen Callaway is attorney Marius Boeru from Morgan & Morgan P.A., while details about legal representation for Life Time or John Doe are not specified within this document. The Case ID is: 502025CA000636XXXAMB Div: AO.
