BELLEVILLE – An East Alton business is facing allegations from a nurse that she was injured by a falling pipe during ceiling maintenance at her place of employment.
A mechanical company claims its former employee’s own negligence for failing to wear appropriate gear and failing operate machinery properly were the cause of his alleged injuries when pressurized hydraulic fluid exploded at Olin Corp. in 2013. Mark and Sandra Avant filed the March 30 lawsuit against Kane Mechanical Inc. According to the complaint, Mark Avant claims he was injured while on the premises of the defendant’s property at the Olin Corp., located at 600 Powder Mill Road in East Alton
Keefe Jr. Faith Countryside Homes filed an answer to a plaintiff's first amended complaint on May 10 stating that alleged injuries were caused by an obvious condition, and that the company had no duty to protect from such conditions.
