According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on July 25, 2015, she her family were overnight guests at defendant's hotel/motel in Fayetteville. While traversing the defendant's parking lot on their way to the restaurant, she allegedly fell because of a defect in the lot, causing her to sustain injuries to her hand, arm and shoulder, both temporary and permanent in nature. The plaintiff holds Whitewater Bar & Grill LLC responsible because the defendant allegedly failed to repair defects in its parking lot and failed to install signage or other markings warning about the defect.
