Spencer v. Securitas Security Services, USA CA1/1
Plaintiff Eugene Spencer is in the business of helping to clear out foreclosed residential properties. In the instant case, he was asked to assist with an eviction and “trash-out” at a residence in a gated community. As the locksmith was in the process of drilling out the lock on the front door, the former owner shot through the door, hitting Spencer. He sued numerous individuals and entities, including the homeowners association, defendant Norris Canyon Estates Owners Association, and the security company the association hired to control access to the neighborhood, defendant Securitas Security Services USA, Inc. Spencer claims that when he passed through the security gate, the guard told him the former owners had moved out and he relied on that statement to his detriment. The trial court granted the homeowners association and security company’s motions for summary judgment, concluding there was no triable issue as to reliance. We affirm.
