The appellants appealed a summary judgment dismissing their negligence claim arising from a personal injury sustained during a fitness class at the respondent's facility.
The plaintiff stepped on a round dumbbell and fell.
The motion judge found that the respondents were not negligent, that the round dumbbell did not pose an unusual hazard, and that the risk of a round dumbbell rolling was obvious.
The motion judge also rejected the appellants' argument regarding a duty to warn.
The Court of Appeal upheld the summary judgment and dismissed the appeal.
