Supreme Court of Colorado

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Groves

The plaintiffs (plaintiffs in error here) brought an action against the defendant school district and others to collect damages for the alleged wrongful death of their son. The court granted a motion for summary judgment in favor of the school district on the ground of governmental immunity and the amended complaint was dismissed as to it. The school district is the only defendant in error in this proceeding. The only issue we are called upon to decide is whether we shall continue to follow the doctrine of governmental immunity as to school districts.
