BANKS, Justice, for the Court:
In this case, we consider the question of whether the trial court erred in granting a summary judgment based on the affirmative defenses of "open and obvious" and "assumption of the risk." Applying our recent pronouncement of the doctrine of open and obvious and the settled law of assumption of the risk, we conclude that summary judgment is not supported by either defense. Accordingly we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
