Kishwar Mirza and Masood Mirza, Her Husband, Plaintiffs-Appellants v. Filmore Corporation, Defendant-Respondent

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the Appellate Division and remanded the case, holding that commercial landowners have a duty to remove or reduce snow and ice on public sidewalks abutting their property and that the Stewart rule applying this duty is to be applied retrospectively to pending litigation. Justice Clifford concurred in the judgment but dissented from the adoption of Stewart, preferring the earlier Yanhko approach.
