Sphinx Hotel on trial for duty of care over dancefloor

A Geelong pub is facing legal action by a patron for failure of duty of care, for injuries she sustained on the premises. It is nearly impossible for public venues to protect patrons from random acts, and such an event would typically fall to a case against the other individual. But Jason Thomas from AusComply says the likely lack of evidence to show the venue’s efforts in this instance could hurt them in Court.
