Tadjer v. Montgomery County

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• remarking that “distinction between governmental and proprietary functions is sometimes illusory in practice”
• explaining that we assess whether “the income derived was in an amount substantially in excess of the County’s expenses for rent, operation and the like, so that the [activity] was a real moneymaking proposition”
• relying on the definition of a public nuisance from section 82IB of the Restatement
• observing that the third-party plaintiffs had not alleged that any land of the original plaintiff had been invaded and that “[w]hat the third-party plaintiffs have attempted to do in their nuisance counts is simply to frame an action in negligence using somewhat different terms”
• discussing both public and private nuisance principles in connection with third- party claims for indemnification and damages against a county arising from an explosion caused by a landfill operation
• “The duty to maintain streets and highways in a reasonably safe condition is a major exception to the immunity from suit in Maryland of counties and municipalities.”
