Wieland v Cyril Lord Carpets [1969] 3 All ER 1006
Judgement for the case Wieland v Cyril Lord Carpets
Table Of Contents
Defendant caused Plaintiff to have a neck problem and made her feel shaken so that, in addition to her neck-collar, her vision and judgment of space was faulty. She fell down the stairs and sustained further injuries.
QBD held that she could claim damages for the second injury as well as the first from Defendant, since the second fall was Defendant’s fault too.
