  • refusing to overturn a trial judge’s admission of expert testimony as to effect of water, slush and rock salt on tile paving
  • there was an issue of fact about whether the defendant knew or should have known since there was evidence that the dangerous condition existed for at least one-half to three-quarters of an hour before the plaintiff fell
  • admission of expert testimony within trial court’s discretion
  • “The standard of care required of all defendants in tort actions . . . must be formulated in each particular case in the light of its peculiar facts . . . by the jury. This is so because of public insistence that its conduct be judged in large part, at least, by a cross-section of the public.”
