The defendant filed the notice was for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy on May 31, court records show.

The petition alleges that on Jan. 11, 2012, Armstrong, while in the course and scope of his employment with Nederland Glass, was installing glass at a Beaumont Wells Fargo bank. He was standing on a 3-foot high ledge when a coworker placed some blocks of wood behind him.

The suit alleges the defendant owed Armstrong a duty to safeguard him from unreasonably dangerous conditions and warn of their existence.

Armstrong is suing for his alleged past and future medical expenses, mental anguish, pain, impairment, disfigurement and lost wages, plus all court costs.

Attorney Tom Oxford of the Beaumont law firm Waldman Smallwood represents him.

Judge Milton Shuffield, 136th District Court, is assigned to the case.
