Robert R. ANDERSON and Christine M. Anderson, individually and as next friends of Robert C. Anderson, a minor, Plaintiffs-Appellees, v. PINE KNOB SKI RESORT, INC., Defendant-Appellant.

Supreme Court of Michigan.

Decided July 16, 2003.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Feeney Kellett Wienner & Bush (by James P. Feeney and Raymond M. Kethledge), Bloomfield Hills, MI, for the plaintiffs-appellees.

Robert L. Bunting, Oxford, MI, (Robert Charles Davis, of counsel), Sterling Heights, MI, for the defendant-appellant.


Opinion

TAYLOR, J.

This case concerns Michigan's Ski Area Safety Act (SASA), M.C.L. § 408.321 et seq., and whether a skier's collision with a timing shack is a danger that inheres in the sport, precluding recovery for injuries that result. We conclude that it is such a danger and that defendant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law under the SASA.
