Space Crazy vendor suit in for case management

A case management conference is set in a suit against a carnival vendor at 9 a.m. on Sept. 28 before Circuit Judge George Moran.

Todd Rehg claims his son, Tyler, injured his left femur after slipping on wet steps at the Space Crazy concession stand during St. Jacob's Homecoming festival on July 18, 2003. He is seeking damages in excess of $50,000.

American Banner is blamed for "keeping the stand open when they should have known the rainstorm made the attraction unsafe for public use," the suit claims.

Rehg claims the concession stand operator failed to warn patrons of the slippery condition and failed to keep its steps dry.

Rehg is represented by Glenn Bradford of Edwardsville. American Banner is represented by Threse Drew of Hinshaw and Culbertson in St. Louis.
