Description

Allison Kimball claims she hurt her back when she P stepped out of an elevator manufactured, installed and maintained by Otis Elevator Company that had stopped about six inches above floor level. After a jury found the elevator was neither negligently designed nor negligently maintained, the court entered judgment in favor of Otis. Ms. Kimball contends the court (1) should not have limited evidence of misleveling solely to the injury-causing elevator, which was one in a group of five identical elevators; (2) should not have admitted a deposition that did not comply with CR 32(a)(5)(B); (3) should have summarily ruled that Otis is a common carrier, held to a higher standard of care; (4) should have instructed the jury on the doctrine of res ipsa loquitur; (5) should have declared a mistrial when defense counsel, during closing argument, mentioned the lack of evidence that the other four elevators had misleveled; and (6) should not have allowed evidence that Ms. Kimball suffered from a neuromuscular disorder affecting her shoulders. We affirm.
