THE RECORD
RIDGEWOOD — The Village Council agreed Wednesday to pay a Ho-Ho-Kus woman $15,000, settling a lawsuit filed last year after a slip-and-fall incident.
According to Village Attorney Matt Rogers, the suit was filed after the woman, Mary Somerwitz, tripped while walking near Ridgewood’s border with Ho-Ho-Kus.
Rogers said Somerwitz tripped while traversing a sidewalk running on a residential road. A portion of the sidewalk, Rogers said, had risen an inch or so from the slabs in front and behind it, causing Somerwitz to stumble and fall.

Is there any way to prevent this litigious c**t from ever stepping foot in Ridgewood again? I don’t want her suing our restaurants and bars out of business.
Isn’t the responsibility to maintain a sidewalk the abutting property owner?
Wow. Using the c-word to refer to a woman. Blogging at its best.
Your right #3 they are real class act
Woman took $15k from us because she couldn’t negotiate a heaved sidewalk. Something I dealt with as a jogger for years since Sandy.
So yeah. CUNT. FUCK HER AND HER LAWYER.
Happy?
#5. You have a serious communication problem. Your parents must be proud.
Do you know anything about the case or are you just out of control? I think that there is a reason why entities settle these cases. She did break a bone in her arm.
#5. You reveal a lot about yourself but show no insight i to the blog post.
RW settled….
Great – I’ll pass the word to all of the shysters that RW pays out.
