I only have one question ? Did N.Y.State Supreme define \”Routine Maintenance\” ?? Probably not!!, and the defense attorneys have yet another obstacle in the future interpretation of this term !!! The arguments will truly continue!!!
This case took place in Nassau County, which happens to be a highly favorable venue for employers when it comes to Labor Law Disputes. The available jurors in Nassau include a large number of business owners, and I\’ve been told that is why the Nassau Courts have a lot of cases where labor laws have been ignored in favor of employers. I\’ve seen it happen in the past, and it will probably continue.
It seems that we are making some progress with the legal system understanding the original intent of Labor Law 240. Clearly, if an employee of a property management company improperly sets up a ladder it should not be the property owner\’s responsibility.
