Woman who suffered 'minor in the extreme' injuries after pub fall loses €60k claim

A 33-year-old airport worker, who tripped over a centuries-old “jostle stone” after exiting a pub in Dublin’s Temple Bar, has lost a €60,000 personal injuries claim against the pub and the city council and will have to pay the legal costs of both defendants.

Janice Brazil, who described herself as a passenger service agent, told Judge Jacqueline Linnane in the Circuit Civil Court that she had a few drinks with friends in February 2015 and tripped over “an invisible stone” outside the Temple Bar Inn.
