Family of Little Leaguer critically injured after falling out of a bunk bed sues the league and bed manufacturer

(CNN) The family of a 12-year-old Little League World Series player who suffered a fractured skull after falling from a bunk bed with no safety rails is suing the league and the company that made the bed, according to court documents.

Easton Oliverson of Utah's Snow Canyon Little League fell from a bunk bed while sleeping August 15 at the players' dormitory in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Critically injured, he was placed in a medically induced coma and underwent multiple surgeries.

The suit, filed by Easton's parents Friday in state court in Pennsylvania, seeks at least $50,000 in compensatory and punitive damages on counts of negligence and liability.

According to the suit, bed maker Savoy Contract Furniture and the Little League were negligent for "failing to have rails on the bed," allowing Easton to fall.

"Savoy designed, manufactured, distributed, marketed, and/or sold the bunk beds in a dangerous and defective condition in that they did not contain every element necessary to make them safe for their intended use," the court filing reads.
