As a further update, it is noted that, yesterday, January 2, 2020, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court denied plaintiff's petition for allowance of appeal. Here is a LINK to the Supreme Court's Order in this regard.
This decision is notable for the fact that the trial court entered summary judgment after finding that the liability experts offered by the Plaintiff failed to offer concrete evidence as to what type of substance was allegedly on the floor of the supermarket that allegedly caused the Plaintiff to fall and suffer fatal head injuries. The court held that, to allow the case to proceed, would have only served to allow for impermissible conjecture on the part of the jury on the causation issues.
