Before KLIEBERT, C.J., and GAUDIN and DUFRESNE, JJ.


GAUDIN, Judge.

This is an appeal by Arthur T. Fields, who was injured in the Goudchaux/Maison Blanche store in Gretna, Louisiana. As Fields was in the process of returning metal legs (part of an outdoor barbecue set) to a sales clerk, one of the legs fell from a box or bag toward the floor, onto Fields' left foot.

A subsequent jury trial in the 24th Judicial District Court resulted in a verdict in favor of the store. Fields' claims were dismissed.
