Grant Miller and Whiting Harbor Aquafarm LLC, Appellants v. State of Alaska, Department of Environmental…

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the superior court’s summary judgment, holding that the Department of Environmental Conservation is immune from Miller’s negligent misrepresentation claim because Alaska Statute AS 09.50.250(8) expressly bars misrepresentation actions against the state, and Miller’s complaint does not assert an independent negligence claim.
