Texas Supreme Court

Brookshire Grocery Company, D/b/a Brookshire Food Stores, Petitioner v. Mary Francis Taylor, Respondent

December 1, 200650 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 170

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and granted summary judgment for Brookshire Grocery Company, holding that the soft‑drink dispenser itself was not an unreasonably dangerous condition and that Brookshire lacked actual or constructive knowledge of the ice on the floor, so Taylor is entitled to no recovery. Justice Johnson filed a concurring opinion noting uncertainty about the application of Corbin v. Safeway.
