Business Invitees • Latent Defect • Duty of Care • Assumption of Risk
Alloway v. The Franklin Inst., PICS Case No. 17-0485 (C.P. Philadelphia Mar. 17, 2017) New, J. (8 pages).
A patron injured while visiting defendant’s educational exhibit did not provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate defendant breached its duty of care to business invitees. The atypical nature of the exhibit itself called for a reasonable patron to exercise a heightened degree of attention in preventing injury. The court granted defendant’s motion for summary judgment.
