Final Summary Judgment Granted In Premises Liability Case
Posted in Verdicts and Settlements on February 19, 2024
Cristobal Casal, Jesse Dyer, and Jason Axley, in the firm’s Pensacola office, recently prevailed on a motion for final summary judgment in a premises liability case. The plaintiff alleged that the restaurant adjacent to the public sidewalk where she tripped was liable for her injuries. The court agreed that summary judgment was appropriate because the restaurant did not exercise control over the sidewalk sufficient to give rise to a legal duty of care.
