James and Love Obtain Summary Judgment for Landlord

Paul James and JC Love recently argued a summary judgment on behalf of a Southeast Regional Property Management Company who was sued as result of a slip and fall in West Central Alabama.  In the case, the Plaintiff asserted fault against the management company for the injuries.  James and Love successfully argued to the Circuit Court that both the location of the injury and the specific facts did not give rise to liability against the company.  The Plaintiff claimed otherwise, describing a series of facts which inferred, but did not establish liability under cases dealing with slip and fall injuries.  The Order granting summary judgment ended the case, as the Plaintiff declined to pursue an appeal.
