- If you are a tenant in a building, you might have an action or a case against your landlord.
- You will have to prove that they were negligent.
- If they had notice of the condition or should have known about the hazard, you might have a case.
- Even if you are the person who gave the notice and were therefore aware of the defect, you might still have a case.
- In that situation, they would blame you for something called comparative negligence.
