Abstract
Discusses a negligence case in which a woman who knew about a particularly wet and slippery area of a health spa proceeded to walk across this area. The woman fell and later sued the health spa on a negligence basis. The Court held that the woman assumed the risk of falling because she knew the floor was slippery and continued to walk across it.
