Monroy v. Alaska Airlines CA2/1
This is a slip and fall case in which the trial court granted a defense motion for summary judgment. Appellant Dora Monroy was descending an exterior staircase from an Alaska Airlines, Inc. plane, using the handrail for support. When her hand came in contact with a clear slippery substance, her hand slid and she fell. The issue is whether Monroy presented evidence establishing a triable issue about Alaska’s knowledge of the slippery spot on the handrail (or, put differently, whether its inspection was legally sufficient). The trial court found that, under the circumstances of this case, the inspection was reasonable. We agree and affirm the judgment.
