Betty Bantum, Plaintiff Below-Appellant v. New Castle County Vo-Tech Education Association, Defendant Below-Appellee

Summary

The court affirmed summary judgment for the school district, holding that statutory immunity for negligence in the construction or maintenance of public school property also covers claims based on failure to inspect or warn about an icy parking lot. The court further held that the district did not waive or become estopped from asserting that immunity by failing to enforce its internal insurance-documentation requirement. The appeal therefore lacked merit and the Superior Court's judgment was affirmed.
