SIEVERS, Judge.

Margaret Tighe (Maggie) fell into a wellhole, which was covered with a deteriorated plywood cover, on premises she and her husband, Rick Tighe, leased from Cedar Lawn, Inc. Maggie sued Cedar Lawn for her injuries in the district court for Buffalo County, Nebraska. Rick sued for loss of consortium. Holding that the Tighes failed to establish that Cedar Lawn owed them a duty, the court granted a directed verdict in Cedar Lawn's favor.
