Sandra Allman vs. Hut's, Inc.

This appeal arises from the alleged fall of the Appellant outside the Appellee gas station and convenience store. The Appellant brought a complaint against the Appellee in the Circuit Court of Gibson County, alleging that the Appellee negligently maintained its premises which was a proximate cause of the Appellant's injuries. The Appellee filed a motion for summary judgment, alleging that the Appellant was unable to prove that the Appellee owed a duty to the Appellant or breached a duty. The trial court granted the Appellee's motion for summary judgment. The Appellant appeals the grant of summary judgment in favor of the Appellee by the Circuit Court of Gibson County. For the reasons stated herein, we reverse the trial court's decision.
