JOHN D. SAUNDERS, Judge.
11While shopping at a Dollar General store owned and operated by Dolgencorp, L.L.C. in Marksville, Louisiana, David Guillot slipped and fell on a discarded McDonald’s cup, sustaining soft tissue injuries. Following a bench trial on the merits, the trial court found Dolgencorp liable and awarded Mr. Guillot $15,000.00 in general damages and $2,426.45 in special damages. We find that the trial court abused its discretion in the admission of certain deposition testimony. Nevertheless, we uphold the trial court’s judgment, and we affirm.
