While doing so at a utility pole outside of her residence, Sanson slipped and fell down a steep embankment above a backwater estuary of the Kanawha River. She incurred injuries including broken ribs, other sprains and contusions. Unable to climb the embankment, she was there for more than an hour.

PA-Bruce L. Freeman; J-Stowers
* Before October 2003, the plaintiffs hired the defendants to represent them in a case against Dr. John King and Putnam General Hospital. In 2007, the Court dismissed their complaint because it was filed more than two years after the claims arose. In 2010, after additional motions and hearings, the Court denied the plaintiffs' motion to alter or ament the Dismissal Order. They seek joint and several compensatory and punitive damages, attorney fees, court costs, expenses and other relief.
