Hanks v. City of Boise

Summary

The Idaho Supreme Court affirmed summary judgment for the City of Boise and Republic Parking System in a premises-liability action arising from Hanks’s fall on an icy patch at the Boise Airport. The court held that Hanks failed to show that the ice was part of a recurring or continuing dangerous condition, that the defendants had actual or constructive notice of the specific patch, or that the district court improperly decided causation sua sponte. The court concluded that no genuine dispute of material fact existed and that the defendants were entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
