Welch, et al. v. Complete Care Corp., et al.

27 Fla. L. Weekly D1337 (Fla. 2nd DCA June 14, 2002)

The court embraced the holding in Bovis v. 7-Eleven, Inc., 505 So. 2d 661 (Fla. 5th DCA 1987), and held that property owners are not strictly liable or liable per se for injuries resulting from a dangerous condition on their property. Premises liability is not predicated on ownership of the property, but on the failure of the possessor of the property to use due care.
