The mayor refused to compensate the accident, saying it was caused by her careless behavior, and the court acknowledged half the responsibility each.
According to Chinese media, including Jimu News, Wang, 62, who lives in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, recently visited a vegetable market with his granddaughter and suddenly fell.
He slipped on a piece of onion that fell on the floor.
According to the examination, Wang suffered a fracture in his right wrist, tooth damage, and arm injury. In particular, the right wrist was diagnosed as grade 10 disability due to dysfunction.
After receiving inpatient treatment for about 10 days, she filed a lawsuit to compensate 203,000 yuan, claiming that the market was responsible for negligent management after discharge.
In a later trial, market managers protested that they made every effort to ensure the safety of consumers by installing information signs such as 'Be careful because the floor may be slippery' and anti-slip tiles.
At the same time, he claimed that it was an accident caused by the carelessness of Wang, who was wearing 3cm flat slippers.
Accordingly, the first trial court "If you look at the video at the time, the cleaner cleaned the floor just before the accident, but he couldn't clean up the onion pieces, and it's hard for Wang to avoid the responsibility of carelessness."The mayor ruled that Wang should be compensated 86,000 yuan (about 17 million won), about half of the legal amount." The two sides reportedly did not appeal the ruling.
