Negligence

STORM IN PROGRESS RULE APPLIED AS A MATTER OF LAW.

The Court of Appeals, over a three-judge dissent, determined claimant's slip and fall complaint was properly dismissed because defendant demonstrated the storm in progress rule applied. There had been an ice storm the night before, a wintry mix was falling at 6:50 am and a light rain was falling when claimant slipped and fell on ice at 8:15 am. The dissent argued the weather conditions were contested raising questions of fact about when the storm ended, if at all, and, if it did end, how much time elapsed before the fall. Sherman v New York State Thruway Auth., 2016 NY Slip Op 03546, CtApp 5-5-16
