A Queens woman allegedly injured in a slip-and-fall at an Adirondack resort will have to litigate her suit in Warren County despite her claim that she was presented with a forum selection document only after her arrival at the resort, a unanimous Appellate Division, Second Department, panel held in reversing a trial judge.
The panel rejected plaintiff Catherine Molino’s contention, and Queens Supreme Court Justice David Elliot’s finding, that she was subjected to an unenforceable contract of adhesion because she had no opportunity to consider the forum clause before her pre-paid visit to the Sagamore Resort in Bolton Landing.
