covered in carpeting; however the floor transitions to tile once inside the men's restroom.

get up, his pants, shirt, hands, face and boots were soaked with water.
13. Plaintiff left the restroom and started walking back out to his friends, when
they came up to him to ask if he was ok. Plaintiff was made to sit down and spoke with a
waitress named Ruth, who took information from him and advised this would be reported
to the diner's insurance company.
14. Prior to Plaintiff entering the men's restroom, other patrons of the diner
reported the flooding problem to diner management and/or employees who advised the
situation would be taken care of.
15. After Plaintiff's fall, a diner employee placed a brown sign, believed to be
either a warning or closed sign, on the men's restroom door.

Section 7102.
41. It is further averred that if plaintiff suffered any injuries or damages,
as alleged, that they were caused solely and primarily by the plaintiffs own
carelessness, recklessness and negligence.
42. It is further averred that if plaintiff suffered any injuries or damages,
as alleged, that they were caused solely and primarily by the carelessness,
recklessness and negligence of third parties over whom answering defendant had
no control, right of control or duty to control.
43. Pursuant to Rule 2252(d), it is further averred that parties other than
Defendants are solely liable to the plaintiff or jointly and severally liable or liable
-8-

44. Plaintiffs' complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief can be

conditions that were existing around him, and failure to take precautions for his
