Description
The issue presented in this appeal is whether the owner/lessor of a pedestrian ramp in a commercial parking garage retained sufficient control over the property to incur a duty to maintain it in a reasonably safe condition. Because the rights retained by the owner/lessor in the lease agreement to protect and preserve the leased property were not related to the maintenance or repair of the garage or ramp, the owner/lessor did not have a duty to maintain the ramp in a reasonably safe condition. The summary judgment entered in favor of the owner/lessor is affirmed. Galyn Stark claims she was injured when she fell on a pedestrian ramp in a parking garage owned by Lehndorff Traders Venture (Lehndorff) and leased by Meyers Parking System, Inc. (Meyers Parking). Ms. Stark sued Lehndorff for her personal injuries alleging that Lehndorff failed to maintain the ramp in a reasonably safe condition, failed to repair the defective and dangerous condition of the ramp, and failed to warn her of the defective and dangerous condition. Ms. Stark sought damages for medical expenses, lost wages, and future medical expenses.
