Case Problems
Case 1.1
1. Outline the case history—what each of the courts decided in the case.
Solution
Lower court held that the community colleges were immune, so it never reached the duty issue.
The court of appeal held that the community colleges were not immune and found that they
had breached their duty to Jose.
2. Explain the standard now for the liability of government entities.
Solution
Although there is immunity for government entities for injuries from recreational activities
(hazardous and otherwise), the court held that government entities still have duties toward
those who are using their facilities.
3. What interests is the court balancing?
Solution
The court is balancing the longstanding protection of government entities from tort liability with
the injuries that can result when there is no supervision of those involved in governmentsponsored
activities. There was also the longstanding precedent that is being changed.
Government entities will need new insurance levels and will need to change their involvement
and supervision requirements.
