Unwitnessed Fall On Icy Sidewalk Near A Supermarket - Fractured Wrist $425,000 Vidal v. 452 Wyckoff Corp, et al (2016) Unwitnessed fall on icy sidewalk near a supermarket - Fractured Wrist We sued a supermarket and the owner of the property where the supermarket was located. When the property owner served an untimely answer (served several days late) we rejected it.
