Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided October 1, 1993 · Calogero
625 So. 2d 156; 1993 La. LEXIS 2747; 1993 WL 391050 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Himel v. Sheraton Hotel of New Orleans

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Granted. Summary judgment reversed. There are genuine issues of material fact or of mixed fact and law: whether the security guard owed a duty to protect the victim and whether he intentionally breached that duty without justification while in the course and scope of his employment. See LeBrane v. Lewis, 292 So.2d 216 (La. 1974). Case remanded to the trial court for further proceedings.

CALOGERO, C.J. not on panel.
