Description
CROCKETT, Chief Justice. Plaintiff sued to recover for injuries sustained when he fell down a stairwell while looking for a restroom in a back room of defendant's tavern. From a summary judgment against him, he appeals. On the evening of April 24, 1959, the plaintiff had been with a group of friends eating, drinking, and dancing in several places in Ogden, winding up in the defendant's tavern where the accident referred to occurred. Plaintiff admitted that he had had at least five whiskey highballs during the course of the evening. He had been in this tavern only once before and did not know where the men's restroom was. Instead of inquiring, or observing at the north end of the tavern where the restrooms were, he went to the south end of the tavern proper, through some swinging doors into a room which he said was so dark that he could hardly see at all, and groped his way along for about 25 feet, through another door, and fell down a stairway.
