Christopher D. Yvars (Partner, Denver, CO) obtained summary judgment in a slip-and-fall case for the lessee and property owner of an Army & Navy Surplus Store in Arapahoe County District Court, Colorado. The plaintiff was walking to her car when she slipped on some ice and fell in the alley separating the clients’ store and their parking lot. Chris established as a matter of law that the clients had no ownership of the alley and owed no legal duty to maintain the area under Colorado’s Premises Liability Act or common law. The court agreed and granted dismissal of the case in its entirety. Chris obtained full resolution of the case before any depositions were taken and without the need for expert discovery.
