How courts have described this case

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

  • accepting that International Building Code can be used for negligence per se but rejecting claim for lack of causation
  • finding the evidence insufficient to survive summary judgment where the plaintiff only supplied her own testimony that she was hit by an automatic door and failed to present evidence that the automatic door malfunctioned
  • property owner was not negligent where “[t]he door had sensors . . . that monitored movement and caused the door to slow or stop when needed,” and “a soft rubber heel plate” allowed the door to stop if someone was moving slowly
