Slip and Fall • Hills and Ridges Doctrine • Constructive Notice
Holtzapple v. Dunkleberger, PICS Case No. 17-0611 (C.P. Lycoming Mar. 15, 2017) Gray, J. (6 pages).
The lack of general slippery conditions in the community at the time of plaintiff’s slip and fall accident precluded application of the hills and ridges doctrine. Genuine issues of material fact existed as to whether defendant had constructive notice of the icy condition in its parking lot where plaintiff fell. The court denied defendant’s motion for summary judgment.
