What is a Public Entity?
A public entity refers to any government agency or organization responsible for providing public services and maintaining public property. These entities can include city governments, public schools, transportation departments, and more. When accidents occur on public property or due to the actions of public employees, individuals may have grounds for a public entity claim.
Types of Public Entity Claims
- Slip and fall accidents on public sidewalks maintained by a city or municipality.
- Injuries resulting from negligent maintenance of public parks or recreational facilities.
- Accidents involving public transportation, such as bus or train collisions.
- Negligent security leading to assaults or injuries on public property.
- Claims against government agencies for dangerous road conditions causing car accidents.
- Injuries caused by defective equipment or infrastructure on public property, such as broken playground equipment.
- Accidents in government buildings due to hazards like slippery floors or inadequate lighting.
- Claims against public schools for injuries resulting from negligence during school-sponsored activities or events.
