Deliveryman Gets $2.9 Million in Slip-and-Fall Lawsuit against Broadway Producer

A FedEx delivery man got a $2.9 million settlement in a slip-and-fall lawsuit that he filed against Cameron Mackintosh, Broadway producer of “Cats” and “Phantom of the Opera,” for injuries he suffered after slipping on a wet floor outside Mackintosh’s midtown office. According to a report in the New York Daily News, the floor had been mopped by Mackintosh’s personal cleaning lady after he said that the night cleaning crew provided by the building management at 1650 Broadway “did not meet his high standards for gleam.”
According to court papers, he brought in an employee to mop the floor. The lawsuit alleges that her sloppy mopping led to the deliveryman’s slip-and-fall incident. He was rushed to Bellevue Hospital after the fall with serious injuries including a torn rotator cuff, ruptured quadriceps tendon, torn meniscus in his knee as well as neck and back injuries. A FedEx employee for 19 years, the victim became disabled after this incident and was forced to retire.
