This is an action in tort for negligence in which the plaintiff seeks damages for personal injuries she sustained in a fall in the defendant’s home. Judgment was entered for the plaintiff in the amount of $41,887.00.

*192The defendant has prosecuted this appeal on a charge of error in the trial court’s denial of four of his requests for rulings of law. The sole issue presented for review by the court’s rulings is whether the evidence adduced at trial was sufficient to warrant the court’s finding against the defendant for the negligent maintenance of his home.
