Mississippi Supreme Court

Joe McGee Construction Company, Inc. v. Dianne Brown-Bowens

August 17, 2023

Summary

The Mississippi Supreme Court reversed the trial court’s denial of summary judgment and entered judgment for the Mississippi Department of Transportation and Joe McGee Construction, holding that the plaintiff failed to produce evidence of a duty, breach, or causation. The Court applied a de novo review of the summary‑judgment rulings and concluded the evidence was insufficient to survive summary judgment.
