Exercise 15
BUSINESS CASE PROBLEM WITH SAMPLE ANSWER: Negligence.
BUSINESS CASE PROBLEM WITH SAMPLE ANSWER: Negligence.     At the Weatherford Hotel in Flagstaff, Arizona, in Room 59, a balcony extends across thirty inches of the room's only window, leaving a twelve-inch gap with a three-story drop to the concrete below. A sign prohibits smoking in the room but invites guests to step out onto the balcony to smoke. Toni Lucario was a guest in Room 59 when she climbed out of the window and fell to her death. Patrick McMurtry, her estate's personal representative, filed a suit against the Weatherford. Did the hotel breach a duty of care to Locario? What might the Weatherford assert in its defense? Explain. [McMurtry v. Weatherford Hotel, Inc., 293 P.3d 520 (Ariz.App. 2013)] (See page 130.)
