Lori Randolph and Ronald Randolph v. Aidan, LLC

Summary

The court held that statutory immunity protects Sioux City from a negligent hiring, retention, or supervision claim arising from an employee’s allegedly negligent inspection of privately owned property. Because the employee’s negligence is an essential element of that claim, the claim was based upon the employee’s inspection conduct under the governing immunity provision. The court reversed the denial of the motion to dismiss and remanded for dismissal.
