Blum v. Roem Builders CA2/2
A motorcyclist slid in a patch of dirt and gravel as he turned into an alleyway. He sued one of the three companies with active construction sites abutting the alley. The trial court granted summary judgment to the construction company and the jobsite’s owner, finding no triable issue of material fact as to whether the company was responsible for dropping the dirt at the alley’s mouth. The motorcyclist now appeals two of the trial court’s predicate evidentiary rulings as well as its grant of summary judgment. We conclude that the trial court erred in excluding photographs of the accident scene, and conclude that those photographs raise a triable issue of fact regarding causation. Accordingly, we reverse.
