Burkhart v. Brockway Glass Co.
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
1Opinion of the Court
McEWEN, Judge:
This is an appeal from a summary judgment entered in favor of appellees. Appellant claims that the trial court erred in granting summary judgment in favor of appellee Brockway Glass Company and asserts: (1) a cause of action exists against an employer/social host who furnishes and authorizes the use of alcoholic beverages at business meetings where the employee/decedent was visibly intoxicated; and (2) a cause of action exists against an employer for “negligent entrustment” 1 of a company owned motor vehicle to an employee/decedent who was visibly intoxicated. We affirm.
