BUILDINGS AND BUILDING RESTRICTIONS, § 36 — store patron slipping in entranceway, sufficiency of evidence. Where plaintiff's father slipped and fell in entrance to defendant's sporting goods store and dropped plaintiff, an 11-month-old infant whom he was carrying, causing her to sustain a fractured skull, judgment was properly granted below for plaintiff, there being evidence that the entranceway was slippery because of slush from melting snow and that mat which was usually kept there under such circumstances was not there at time of accident.
