A Webb City man is suing Sutherland Lumber Company, 2805 Range Line following an accident that occurred October 22, 2022, according to the lawsuit, which was filed today in Jasper County Circuit Court.
Steve Grissom (DOB 1959) claims that after he completed his purchase, he turned and fell over an "unattended flat lumber cart which had constructions material extending off the edges several feet. Plaintiff Grissom went over the top of the lumber and fell headfirst into the store wheelchairs which caused him to land on his hands and chest."
The fall caused "injury to his bilateral wrists, right knee, right hip, cervical spine, lumbar spine, and right shoulder," according to the petition.
Grissom, who is represented by Joplin attorney Anna Pace, claims Sutherland Lumber was negligent in not making sure its walkways were "free of hazardous conditions and providing business invitees with a safe area for walking."
Grissom is asking for "compensatory damages and costs."
Listed as a defendant, along with the company, is store manager Jeremy Schemet.
