A shopper who told a court she was injured when she slipped on milk in a Lidl supermarket has had her €15,000 compensation claim thrown out. A medical report stated she had lower back pain for three to four months after the fall and had intermittent back pain since. She appeared to walk past the spill but after speaking to another person, she looked back towards it before she returned. On the third time she walked over it and slipped, the court heard. The case was fully contested by Lidl, which had offered her a chance to drop the action but she refused.
