Jasko v. F. W. Woolworth Co.
Supreme Court of Colorado (1972) | 494 P.2d 839; 177 Colo. 418; 1972 Colo. LEXIS 936
TL;DR: A customer slipped on pizza in a store. The court held that because the store's method of selling pizza made spills foreseeable, the customer did not need to prove the store had notice of that specific spill to proceed with her negligence claim.
Legal Significance: Establishes the "method of operation" rule, creating an exception to the traditional notice requirement in premises liability cases where a business's practices make dangerous conditions continuous or foreseeable.
