Worker recovers for fall caused by 'junk brick'
An ironworker whose ankle was crushed by a powerlift after he fell on uneven ground at a brickyard work site recovered $810,315. Roger K. Hepner blamed his fall on "junk brick," which is old, culled brick that's used to cover the ground at a construction site. The plaintiff's construction expert argued that junk brick created an unsafe condition. It's standard for a work site to have gravel because junk brick causes an uneven surface. Defense counsel argued that once Hepner fell, the operator of the lift should have been carefully watching the area and not have run over the Hepner's foot.
