Liability: Notice and Creation
A word about Notice and Creation: in most instances, in order to establish liability against the owner or tenant at the premises, it must be proven that the owner or tenant (or a contractor hired by an owner or tenant) either created the tripping hazard that caused the accident, or had notice of the tripping hazard for a sufficient period of time prior to the accident to have afforded them the opportunity to fix or otherwise remedy the condition.
