Carter v. Chans Market
Plaintiff, Janice Carter, sued defendants, Joseph Shane and his employer, Chans Market, Inc., alleging assault, battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Chans Market moved for summary judgment on the ground there is no nexus between Shanes work as a grocery clerk and his conduct of grabbing Carters crotch, with the result it could not be held vicariously liable for Shanes conduct. Carter appeals from the judgment entered after the trial court granted Chans Markets motion. Factual disputes exist here precluding summary judgment. Accordingly, Court reverse the judgment.
