SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 3 – Patience Ejoh slipped and fell in the Target store at 815 East Hutchinson River Parkway in The Bronx on October 10, 2018 and sued.      

    On January 3, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York  Judge Paul A. Engelmayer held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.

   Judge Engelmayer asked if there was video of the conditions on the aisle, and the fall.

The defense lawyer said he was not sure, adding that many of the domes in the Target stores are "dummies" - meaning, intended to fool people that they are in fact being filmed when there is no camera in the dome. 

 Judge Engelmayer said, We have no court reporter, so your secret is safe with me. But Inner City Press reports it here. The store manager is said to still be in the employ of Target.

The case is Ejoh v. Target Corporation, 21-cv-9535 (Engelmayer)
