FLORIDA PERSONAL INJURY BLOG: CROCS And Family Of Young Boy Settle Escalator Lawsuit
A confidential financial settlement has been reached between the family of a 5-year-old and CROCS, the maker of popular plastic clogs after the young boy was badly injured on an escalator at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The settlement was approved by a Senior U.S. District Judge and also includes the maker of the escalator and the company that runs the airport according to an article on the ajc.com.
The lawsuit was filed last year and in the suit the plaintiffs claimed that the boy’s CROCS began to melt as his shoe rubbed against a down escalator at the airport. One of the CROCS got caught causing serious injury that required two surgeries and extensive physical therapy. As part of the settlement, the boy will begin to receive payments when he turns 18.
