Attorney(s) :
Result:
Per Curiam Affirmance without Written Opinion of Summary Judgment
Summary:
Managing Appellate Partner Daniel Weinger and Senior Partner Gary Gorday obtained a per curiam affirmance without written opinion of a summary judgment in a slip and fall on a transient foreign substance case. In granting summary judgment, the trial court rejected the plaintiff’s attempt to rely on statements from a person the plaintiff claimed was a store employee to establish actual or constructive knowledge of the condition. In affirming summary judgment, the appellate court agreed with the trial court that not only was it unclear that the person who made the statement was an employee, but that the statement itself was speculative.
