Trans-Vaughn Development Corp. v. Cummings

Bernes, Judge.

Defendant Trans-Vaughn Development Corporation appeals from the trial court’s order denying its motion for summary judgment. Trans-Vaughn contends the trial court erred in denying its motion because the undisputed material facts show that plaintiff Shelley Cummings had equal knowledge of the alleged dangerous condition of the entranceway where she slipped and fell. We agree and reverse.
