Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Jerry A. Jared, Cookeville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Jackie Mansfield Broyles.

Attorneys 2: Warren M. Smith, Nashville, Tennessee, for the appellee, Calvin C. Herrin, Jr., individually and d/b/a Hickory Creek Barbecue.

Judge(s): BENNETT

After slipping and falling on accumulated snow and ice at a restaurant, a man filed a premises liability lawsuit against the owner of the restaurant. The trial court granted summary judgment to the owner based on its finding that the owner owed no duty to protect the man from accumulated snow and ice because the incident occurred during an ongoing winter storm. Discerning no error, we affirm the trial court’s decision.
