Plaintiff alleges City negligence over hazardous sidewalk leading to injury
Rebecca Ann Moore has filed a lawsuit against the City of St. Petersburg, alleging negligence that resulted in personal injury. The complaint was submitted by Moore on January 28, 2025, in the Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial Circuit in Pinellas County, Florida, targeting the City of St. Petersburg as the defendant.
The case stems from an incident on February 24, 2024, when Moore tripped and fell on an uneven sidewalk located near 116 4th Avenue North in St. Petersburg. According to the complaint, Moore was lawfully walking as an invitee on the public sidewalk when she encountered this hazardous condition. The lawsuit claims that the City of St. Petersburg failed to maintain its premises safely and neglected to warn or correct known dangers associated with the uneven sidewalk.
Moore’s legal representation argues that the city breached its duty by not maintaining a safe environment for pedestrians and failing to address or warn about potential hazards such as uneven sidewalks. The complaint details several alleged failures by the city: not keeping the sidewalk in a reasonably safe condition, neglecting to warn invitees like Moore about existing hazards, and not remedying these issues despite having ample time and knowledge of their existence.
