73 year old man stepped on and fell! Parents were sentenced to compensate 80000 yuan, and children dropped banana peels. Parents | banana peels | were sentenced to compensate
On June 21, the "Jiangxi Court" WeChat official account released a case that a young child fell off a piece of banana skin while eating a banana. The old man stepped on the banana skin and fell down injured. The parents of the children were sentenced to pay compensation of nearly 80000 yuan.
On September 11, 2022, Huang, a two-year-old child living in a residential area in Jinxi County, dropped a small piece of banana skin on the hallway of his own building while eating bananas. However, his guardian did not clean it up and left it unattended. Nineteen minutes later, 73 year old Li, who lived in the same building, accidentally stepped on a banana peel while passing through the road section, causing a left femoral neck fracture.
After Li fell, he was sent to the hospital for treatment, which cost more than 31000 yuan. His injury was identified as a ninth level disability. Due to the inability to reach an agreement on compensation issues, Li sued Huang and his legal guardians, parents Huang and Peng, and a property management company in the affected community to the Jinxi County People's Court, demanding that the latter compensate for various economic losses such as disability compensation, totaling 121985 yuan.
The People's Court of Jinxi County believes that Li was injured by stepping on a banana peel that Huang had dropped. Huang's parents, Huang and Peng, as legal guardians, failed to fulfill their guardianship duties and were at fault, and should bear corresponding tort liability. Li, as a person with full capacity for civil conduct, neglected to observe the road conditions while walking, and he himself should also bear certain responsibilities. The time period of the incident does not belong to the cleaning work time of the property management company, and Li fell and was less than 20 minutes away from Huang who threw away the banana peel. There is no evidence to prove that the property management company did not fulfill its safety protection obligations. The company is not at fault for the occurrence of the incident and does not assume responsibility. Thus, Huang and Peng were ordered to compensate Li with 79802 yuan.
After the judgment, neither party appealed within the statutory time limit, and the judgment has become effective.
