Huntington couple sues Gino's for injuries sustained at restaurant

HUNTINGTON -- A Huntington man and his wife are suing Gino's Pizza Parlor & Public Pub for injuries sustained from a defective chair.

On April 8, 2011, David Dunn was a patron at Gino's and when he went to sit down in a chair, the chair collapsed and caused him to fall to the ground and land on his neck and back, according to a complaint filed April 23 in Cabell Circuit Court.

Dunn claims the defendant provided him with unsafe, faulty and/or defective equipment unknown to him.

The defendant negligently and carelessly maintained, inspected and/or provided the defective and/or faulty equipment, according to the suit.

Dunn and his wife, Donna Dunn, are seeking compensatory damages with pre- and post-judgment interest. They are being represented by Dennis E. Kelley.

The case has been assigned to Circuit Judge David M. Pancake.
