Plaintiff: Marie L. Diaz
Defendant: Lutel, LLC.
What’s at issue: Whether the manufacturer of an inflatable obstacle course failed to properly store the straps on the course. Plaintiff Diaz claims in Charlottesville Circuit Court to have suffered serious and permanent injuries at Pump It Up in Harrisonburg as a result of Lutel’s alleged negligence.
What’s at stake: According to Diaz, she is owed $150,000 for her physical injuries as well as mental anguish, and perhaps most importantly, the associated humiliation and embarrassment she has suffered as the result of being injured on a child’s inflatable jungle gym.
What’s the status: Diaz filed her suit in late October. Lutel has yet to respond.
