Fellowes v. Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. et. al.
In Fellowes v. Harrah’s, plaintiff alleged that she tripped and fell at the Atlantic City Showboat as a result of torn carpeting. During the mandatory arbitration, Philip Odett successfully argued that the defendant was not on notice of any defect. The arbitrator concluded Showboat was not liable for plaintiff’s incident. Judge Alvaro Iglesias subsequently granted Showboat’s motion dismissing all claims against Showboat Casino with prejudice.
