I seriously doubt it would come to that ... remember, you are suggesting that the umpire is liable for an injury to a player who falls over a piece of playing equipment being used in the way it was intended in the game and being in a place it could reasonably be expected to be during the normal course of the game and for which the umpire has no responsiblities under the rules of the game.
But, even if it did come to a deposition, explaining to a conference room of lawyers and a court recorder that the case is BS is a minor inconvenience.
