Plaintiff Patricia Kenny seeks damages for injuries sustained on January 19, 2005, when she slipped on black ice in the parking garage of the United States District Court, Eastern District Courthouse, in Central Islip, New York. The garage and courthouse were constructed in the 1990s and plaintiff alleges that a design defect caused or allowed water to drip, which water froze, causing the ice condition on which she slipped and fell. Third-party defendant The Corporate Source commenced a fourth third-party action seeking contribution from Mueser Rutledge Consulting Engineers (MRCE), a firm retained by another party to provide geotechnical engineering services in connection with the design and construction of the courthouse and garage. MRCE’s work on the project was completed by September 1997.
