California Court of Appeal

In action based on alleged negligence of landowner in maintenance of residential property where plaintiff was sexually assaulted by a man who broke into other unit, summary judgment for defendant is reversed as there is a triable issue as to whether the condition of the apartment complex on the night plaintiff was attacked was a substantial factor in causing her injuries. (Opinion on rehearing).
