Assault by Another Student—Question Whether School District Had Notice of Dangerous Conduct Precluded Summary Judgment to Plaintiff

In reversing the trial court’s grant of summary judgment to the plaintiff on the issue of liability, the Second Department determined there was a question of fact concerning whether the defendant school district adequately supervised students (the plaintiff was assaulted by another student):

“Schools are under a duty to adequately supervise the students in their charge and they will be held liable for foreseeable injuries proximately related to the absence of adequate supervision” … . “In determining whether the duty to provide adequate supervision has been breached in the context of injuries caused by the acts of fellow students, it must be established that school authorities had sufficiently specific knowledge or notice of the dangerous conduct which caused injury; that is, that the third-party acts could reasonably have been anticipated” … . Braunstein v Half Hollow Hills Cent. Sch. Dist., 2013 NY Slip Op 02039, 2012-04442, Inex No 23108/09, 2nd Dept. 3-27-13
