BATON ROUGE – An East Baton Rouge woman is suing a local janitorial service after slipping and falling in a restroom.
Ashley Verner filed suit against Jani King of Baton Rouge Janitorial Service in the 19th Judicial District Court on April 7.
On May 8, 2014, Verner states that she was working at Sage Rehab and she went to use the restroom where there were not any signs posted to indicate that there was a Jani King employee cleaning the restroom. The plaintiff claims that upon exiting the restroom she slipped on a liquid substance that was left on the floor by a Jani King employee. The plaintiff claims that she was severely injured and underwent knee surgery on Oct. 21, 2014.
The defendant is accused of failing to keep a proper lookout for leaking residue, failing to clean up liquid right away, failing to warn people of a wet floor, failing to properly inspect the floor, failing to have liquid merchandise under control to keep it from leaking on the floor and failing to properly train employees.

STATELINE (AP) — A Lake Tahoe casino employee has been arrested on suspicion of theft after police said he made off with a bundle of $100 bills totaling $10,000 that had been accidentally dropped by a gambler.
Douglas County sheriff's deputies say the gambler had won $70,000 and was walking to an elevator from the Harrah's Tahoe casino floor when he dropped the wad of cash early Wednesday.
Contract janitorial worker Richard Ferrer is accused of sweeping the money into a dustpan, then heading to the employee break room.
The Record-Courier newspaper of Gardnerville reports the entire incident was caught on tape and the suspect told security personnel he stashed the money in a garbage can, where all but $100 was recovered.
The 36-year-old Ferrer told deputies he intended to turn the money over to his supervisor at his next break except for $100, which he planned to keep to himself. That $100 was found under the same garbage can.
The policy for both the Stateline casino and the contractor calls for employees to turn such money over to security.

Lincoln mother of five who struggled with addiction and depression died Sunday in Nebraska City, apparently from inhaling a dust cleaner.
Rachel E. Novak was found in the bathroom of a Nebraska City apartment late Sunday morning.
Otoe County Attorney David Partsch said police found a can of Blow Off Duster near her. He said her death appears to be accidental.
Novak lived in Lincoln but had been staying off and on in Nebraska City for the past year, her mother said Tuesday.
"She always struggled in school and had learning and memory problems," Beth Novak said. "Rachel was really just a good kid until her senior year in high school."
That's when she stopped taking medication for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and started to self-medicate, her mother said.
"She needed someone with her all the time helping her, and when she was left alone she was overwhelmed," Beth Novak said.
Rachel Novak's sister Carolyn Weese said her sister was very outgoing and loved animals and kids, but she struggled with drugs and was depressed.

SEBRING — The Highlands County School District is saving money by outsourcing custodian services, but the school board has scheduled a workshop to study supply shortages at the schools and to discuss keeping the schools’ plant operator on the district payroll.
School Board Vice Chair Donna Howerton said the board was informed at Tuesday’s school board meeting that schools have been running short of custodial supplies such as paper towels and cleaning materials.
Schools are supposed to have up to three weeks of supplies on hand, she said. The schools say they are ordering the supplies, but they don’t have a three-week supply on their premises.
The school district contracts with GCA, which Assistant Superintendent of Business Operations Mike Averyt is a professional cleaning company with standardized procedures, supplies and training.
In the past schools purchased a six-month supply of custodial needs and had them on the shelves, Averyt explained.
The problem was controlling that much inventory.
