Leo Landry v. Sumner County Board of Education

Syllabus

This is a negligence case arising out of an injury suffered by a middle school student when a chair fell on his finger in his school's lunchroom. The trial court determined that summary judgment was warranted as a matter of law because there was insufficient evidence to demonstrate that a dangerous condition existed and because the incident was not foreseeable. We conclude that there is no dispute of material fact and that summary judgment in favor of the school district was properly granted accordingly, we affirm.

Judges: Judge Richard H. Dinkins
