Summary Judgment Secured in Premises Liability Case

We successfully won summary judgment on behalf of our client, a vendor who did work for a national bank. The plaintiff alleged our client created a dangerous condition in the parking lot that caused her to trip and fall. Plaintiff’s counsel was initially presented with evidence disputing the claims in his complaint, including specific work orders that identified and limited the scope of our client’s work of replacing nine concrete car stops at the bank branch location nine months prior to the plaintiff’s accident. Following initial discovery, the plaintiff testified during her deposition that the car stops had nothing to do with the trip and fall. Having failed to produce any evidence to support her claim in opposition to our motion for summary judgment, the court granted summary judgment from the bench following oral argument.
