Hoff v. HIBBARD HARDWARE, INC.

276 S.W.3d 843, 2008 Mo. App. LEXIS 1455, 2008 WL 5705982

Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

John R. Hoff and Joyce A. Hoff (collectively referred to as “Plaintiffs”) appeal from the grant of summary judgment in favor of Hibbard Hardware, Inc. (“Hib-bard Hardware”) on Plaintiffs’ claims for premises liability and loss of consortium. Plaintiffs argue the trial court erred in granting summary judgment in favor of Hibbard Hardware because there was a genuine issue of material fact as to (1) whether Hibbard Hardware made use of the public sidewalk and steps for its own purposes and benefit, and (2) whether Hib-bard Hardware artificially created, through negligence or affirmative action, a condition that made the public sidewalk and steps unsafe.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and find the claims of error to be without merit. An opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating principles of law would have no precedential value. The parties have been furnished with a memorandum for their information only, setting forth the reasons for this order. The judgment is affirmed in accordance with Rule 84.16(b).
