Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat and whisk in the flour. Cook while stirring constantly for 4 minutes to cook out the flavor of raw flour. Gradually whisk in the half-and-half so that no lumps form. Bring to a simmer then remove from the heat and add the cheese; stir until melted. In a large skillet (that has a lid), melt 2-1/2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Add wine and lemon juice. Bring to a boil. Add clams and remaining butter. Cover and steam until clams have opened (about 7-8 minutes). Occasionally shake skillet while steaming.

Bally’s Hotel Casino
On Aug. 5, 2007, plaintiff Jannie Williams, aged 48 and not employed at the time due to disability, went to the Wild Wild West Casino at Bally’s Atlantic City. At approximately 8:30 p.m., she went for dinner at the Virginia City Buffet, and took from a buffet station some steamed clams with a melted butter sauce. While seated, Williams claimed, she spilled the butter sauce on her arms and abdomen. She claimed she sustained first- and second-degree burns. Williams sued Bally’s Hotel Casino for general negligence, alleging that the butter sauce was too hot to serve and caused her injuries. Bally’s contended it was not negligent, arguing that Williams spilled the butter sauce on herself and caused her own injuries. A motion in limine by the defense was granted which prohibited Williams from submitting the temperature of the butter sauce into evidence, since Williams did not retain an expert on the matter.
Williams went to the emergency room and was diagnosed with first- and second-degree burns to both arms and her abdomen. She treated her burns with topical creams. Williams claimed that while her burns healed, she is now left with permanent scarring on her arms and abdomen. She further claimed that the scars occasionally bother her when they make contact with certain surfaces, and that she has to wear long sleeves to cover them. She sought general damages. The defense argued that Williams caused her own injuries and her burns have healed. The defense claimed that the scars were barely noticeable and did not constitute a permanent injury.
The jury rendered a defense verdict.
