Description
The early decisions, although few in number, were quite uniform in holding that a social guest injured in a private home by slipping on a rug placed on a polished hardwood floor could not recover. Lewis v. Dear, 120 N. J. L. 244; Greenfield v. Miller, 173 Wis. 184; anno. 12 A. L. R. 987 ; 92 A. L. R. 1005 ; 25 A. L. R. (2d) 598, 614. However the recent case of Curren v. OConnor, 304 N. Y. 515, recognizes that a complaint of a social guest injured by the slipping of a small mat which was not anchored to the floor states a cause of action which cannot be dismissed without a trial. Likewise in Droge v. Czarniechi, 126 N. Y. S. (2d) 794, it was held that a social visitor may recover if a jury finds that an unsecured small throw-rug on a waxed slippery floor was a dangerous condition which caused the plaintiffs injuries. We need not resolve this conflict of authority on the liability of a host for injuries to social guests visiting a private home in this case because the decedent was an invitee.
