DeLoach and Cheek Secure Summary Judgment for Building Owner in Slip and Fall Claim

G. Robert DeLoach (Of Counsel-Charlotte, NC) and Brad Cheek (Associate-Charlotte, NC) secured summary judgment in the Court of Common Pleas for the 13th Judicial Circuit, Greenville, South Carolina, for Wilson Elser’s client, the owner of a medical office building located on the campus of a hospital network. In this trip and fall matter, the plaintiff allegedly fell on a sidewalk she claimed was poorly maintained, suing our client and two other hospital entities. Bob and Brad succeeded on their motion for summary judgment with two persuasive arguments: Our client did not owe the plaintiff a duty to warn due to her admission when deposed that the condition of the sidewalk was open and obvious, and that the court’s prior granting of summary judgment pursuant to the co-defendant’s argument constituted res judicata as to the plaintiff’s claims against our client.
