Chantelle and Dave both work at Keel and Grimauld Attorneys. They are both avid basketball players. They both belong to their local league, the Jumping Jacks.

Chantelle promises to be a very good basketball player and has aspirations for a professional career. She does not intend to stay in law and hopes to be picked up by a scout at the Championship game.

On the day of the championship game Chantelle slipped within the first 6 minutes of being on the court and broke her ankle. This injury will keep her out for the rest of the season. Chantelle is beyond upset as a scout was coming to the Championship game and this game could have meant big things for her. Upon investigation it is discovered the gym where the Jumping Jacks played has recently had their floor buffed by Polish R Us. The buffing was done by Peter, an apprentice who made the floor much too smooth and more shiny than it needed to be resulting in an overly slippery floor. No supervisor was present and no training was given to Peter. Peter has since been fired. Polish R Us claim that he is not competent and unable to do his job efficiently.

Chantelle would like to bring a claim against Polish R Us with regard to he broken ankle. Peter is very worried that he will be held liable.Advise Peter.
