Cortez v. City of Huntington Park
Plaintiff and appellant Teresa Cortez appeals from a grant of summary judgment in favor of defendant and respondent the City of Huntington Park (City). Appellant sued the City for damages after she tripped on a sidewalk. The trial court ruled that summary judgment was warranted on the grounds that the sidewalk defect was trivial as a matter of law and that the City lacked notice of any defect. Court affirm. The undisputed evidence showed that the one half to three fourths inch height differential in the sidewalk was a trivial defect and, alternatively, that the City lacked notice of any defect.
