9.  A customer was shopping at a large retail mall. She slipped and broke her hip on a patch of clear oily residue. The patch had accumulated over a two-day period in front of a massage kiosk, and spread several feet onto the main walking area for customers. There was a small sign as a part of the massage kiosk display on the front counter that said, “Beware of slippery floors.” When the customer had broken her hip, she had been looking ahead while walking, yet her feet slid wildly off of the floor to the extent that she partially somersaulted into the air and fell down hard onto the concrete. After learning that she would be disabled permanently, the customer sued the mall and the massage kiosk company. Will she likely prevail in her negligence claim against the mall?

17.  Shopkeeper, the owner of a small dress shop, fired Cashier, saying to other people in the store, “I just saw Cashier steal $100 by taking $200 in payment for a dress and ringing up the dress as if it were a $100 item.” Cashier sued Shopkeeper for slander. Evidence at trial shows that the dress in question cost $178, that Cashier rang up a $98 tab on the register, and that Cashier thus stole $80. Assuming that Shopkeeper is shown to have had the required mental state, may Cashier recover?

12.  A waitress was opening a bottle of a popular soft drink to serve to a customer when the bottle broke into two jagged pieces and inflicted a deep and long cut on her hand that severed blood vessels, nerves and the muscles in her thumb and palm. She later had to have several operations to restore use of and feeling in the hand. In a lawsuit against the manufacturer, the waitress alleged negligence and strict liability in tort, but found it difficult to prove the nature of the defect. She presented several witnesses familiar with the fact that some of the bottles would explode, but the cause was unknown. She proved that she did nothing wrong with the bottle and that it remained in the same condition as when it left the manufacturer’s plant. She also proved by expert testimony that there were tests that the manufacturer performs or can perform on the bottles to give a fairly fool-proof determination whether the bottle is safe. The defendant moved for summary judgment for failure to prove a defect and failure to show causation. What legal theory can the plaintiff rely on to establish liability in this kind of a situation where there is no indication of any carelessness by the plaintiff?
