MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
BROADWATER, District Judge.
On this day, the above styled matter came before the Court for consideration of the government’s motion for summary judgment. In its motion, the government argues, inter alia, that there can be no liability for negligence by the United States in this case. The government submits that there was no duty owed by the government, as a lessee, to protect the plaintiffs real estate from fire damage. After considering the memoranda of law and oral argument of both parties, the Court finds that the government’s motion should be granted.
