Burnett v. Imerys Marble, Inc.

GOLDEN, Justice.

[¶ 1] Richard Burnett, an employee of Thurel Mason Trucking, was injured when he fell off his flat bed truck as he was placing tarps over a load of marble he had picked up at a facility owned by Imerys Marble, Inc. Burnett sued Imerys for negligence asserting Imerys had breached its duty of care to Burnett by, among other things, failing to comply with Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) regulations. The district court determined Imerys owed no duty of care to Burnett and granted Imerys’ motion for summary judgment. Burnett now appeals.

[¶ 2] We affirm.
