Filing # 179213800 E-Filed 08/08/2023 05:15:50 PM IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE SECOND JUDICIAL CIRCUIT IN AND FOR GADSDEN COUNTY, FLORIDA DORTHY PARIS, entitled to appointment as the Personal Representative of the Estate of DRAVON SHEFFIELD deceased, and on behalf of the survivors of DRAVON SHEFFIELD, Plaintiff, VS. CASE NO. 22000532CAA KLUB VIBEZ LLC, Defendant. / PLAINTIFF’S RESPONSE TO DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR FINAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT COMES NOW, DORTHY PARIS, as the Personal Representative of the Estate of DRAVON SHEFFIELD, deceased, and on behalf of the survivors of DRAVON SHEFFIELD, there being genuine issue of material fact at dispute Defendant, KLUB VIBEZ, LLC, is not entitled to summary judgment pursuant to Florida Rules of Civil Procedure. Introduction On October 11, 2020, Mr. Sheffield went to Klub Vibez to see a local rapper that had made it big time, “Bobby Fishscale”. Klub Vibez booked Rapper Fishscale and advertised that he would be holding a concert at Klub Vibez on October 10, 2020. Klub Vibez was fully aware that it did not have sufficient parking to accommodate all of the people it was inviting to this concert, but Klub Vibez knew that it could direct all of the overflow traffic across the street and direct people to park in the Armory parking lot, since it was such a large parking lot, which was Klub Vibez customary practice. At no time did Klub Vibez get Gadsden County’s permission to make use of the parking for Klub Vibez’s commercial benefit or for any reason whatsoever. Mr. Sheffield went to Klub Vibez for the concert and could not park in Klub Vibez’s parking lot because it is an extremely small parking lot, with several spots being reserved for VIP parking. Mr. Sheffield was directed to park in the parking lot across the street. Mr. Sheffield had just arrived back at his car when he was shot while standing next to the driver’s side door Klub Vibez did not provide any security or off duty law enforcement for the parking lot where it directed its patrons to park or knew that its patrons parked. Klub Vibez was on notice that this was going to be large event in Quincy and there had been a rash of violent shootings in Quincy. Members of the community encouraged Klub Vibez to cancel the concert due to the violent crime that was occurring in Quincy at the time. See attached Exhibits.! Klub Vibez failed to warn its customers that they would not be providing security for the parking lot where they directed their patrons to park or knew their patrons parked, and as a result Mr. Sheffield was killed from this foreseeable shooting. Defendant makes two primary legal arguments in support of its Motion for Final Summary Judgment 1 Klub Vibez Had No Legal Duty to Plaintiff for Criminal Acts Committed off Klub Vibez’s Premises. 2. Klub Vibez is Not Liable for the Unforeseeable Criminal Acts of Third Party Plaintiff DORTHY PARIS, as the Personal Representative of the Estate of DRAVON SHEFFIELD, deceased, and on behalf of the survivors of DRAVON SHEFFIELD, contends that ' Mikhial Murray Affidavit (Exhibit 1), Troy Lee, Jr. Affidavit (Exhibit 2); Quincy Police Department Records Certification (Exhibit 3); and Quincy Police Department Criminal Investigation Records (Exhibit 4). KLUB VIBEZ, LLC had a legal duty to Plaintiff for criminal acts that occurred adjacent to their property. KLUB VIBEZ, LLC was liable for the criminal acts of a third party Statements of Facts Statement of Mikhial Murray 1 My name is Mikhial Murray, and I am over 18 years of age 2. On October 11, 2020, I was with my cousin Dravon Sheffield, and we went to Klub Vibes When we arrive to Klub Vibes and attempted to enter the parking we were directed to park in the lot across street by security We parked in the parking lot and entered Klub Vibes, after the club was over, we walked back across the street to enter our vehicle. When we got our vehicle, we heard loud shots, and I looked over and realized that my cousin was shot and not moving. When I looked up, I saw people hanging out of a car with a gun speeding out of the Gadsden county parking lot. Statement of Troy Lee, Jr. 1 My name is Troy Lee Jr. and I am over 18 years of age 2. On October 11, 2020, I went to Klub Vibes with my cousin, it was supposed to be a big party that brought everyone in the city out. We were leaving the club and walked across the Street to the parking lot that security told us to park in because the parking lot for the club was full when we got to the club. 4. When we got in the by the car, some other car starting shooting at us in the parking lot. Standard of Review Florida has adopted the federal standard for summary judgment as of May 1, 2021. See in re Amend. To Fla Rule Civ. Pro. 1.510, No. SC 20-1490 (Fla. April 29, 2021). Summary judgment pursuant to Rule 56 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure is appropriate when the pleadings, affidavits, and depositions demonstrate that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317 (1986). A motion for summary judgment must be denied where there is a genuine dispute of material facts. Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 106 S.Ct. 2505 (1986). “At the summary judgment stage, the trial judge's function is not himself to weigh the evidence and determine the truth of the matter but to determine whether there is a genuine issue for trial.” /d at 243. The burden of establishing that there is no genuine issue of material fact is on the moving party. Clark v. Coats & Clark, 929 F.2d 604 (11 Cir. 1991). The evidence must be viewed in the light most favorable to the non-moving party. Augusta Iron and Steel Works, Inc. v. Employers Insurance of Wausau, 835 F.2d 855, 856 (11th Cir, 1988). The non-moving party must respond by affidavits or as otherwise provided in Fed.R.Civ.P. 56. “[T]he evidence of the non-movant is to be believed, and all justifiable inferences are to be drawn in his favor.” Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248, 106 S.Ct. 2505, 2510, 91 L.Ed.2d 202 (1986). A genuine issue of material fact will be said to exist “if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party.” Anderson v. Radisson Hotel Corp., 834 F. Supp. 1364, 1368 (S.D. Ga. 1993). ARGUMENT Florida law imposes a nondelegable duty on those in control of any premises to maintain the premises in a reasonably safe condition based on that particular premises. Atl. Coast Dev. Corp. v. Napoleon Steel Contractors, Inc., 385 So.2d 676, 679 (Fla. 3d DCA 1980); U.S. Sec. Services Corp. v. Ramada Inn, Inc., 665 So. 2d 268, 269 (Fla. 3d DCA 1995)(“Ramada had a non- delegable duty to the plaintiff, as Ramada's business invitee, to provide the plaintiff with reasonably safe premises, including reasonable protection against third party criminal attacks”). “[A] cause of action for premises liability does not hinge on legal title or ownership, but rather on the failure of the party who is in actual possession or control to perform its legal duty.” Regency Lake Apts. Assocs., Ltd. v. French, 590 So. 2d 970, 974 (Fla. Ist DCA 1991) (emphasis omitted); see Burton v. MDC PGA Plaza Corp., 78 So. 3d 732, 735-36 (Fla. 4th DCA 2012). The level of control and responsibility is a factual issue to be resolved by the jury. Thompson v. Gallo, 680 So. 2d 441, 443 (Fla. 1st DCA 1996). “Visitors upon the private property of others fall within one of three classifications: they are either trespassers, licensees, or invitees.” Post v. Lunney, 261 So. 2d 146, 147 (Fla. 1972) “The classification is important because it determines the duty of care owed the visitor by the property owner or occupier. He must not willfully and wantonly injure a trespasser; he must not willfully and wantonly injure a licensee, or intentionally expose him to danger; and, where the visitor is an invitee, he must keep his property reasonably safe and protect the visitor from dangers of which he is, or should be aware.” Post v. Lunney, 261 So. 2d 146, 147 (Fla. 1972) There are two types of Invitees under Florida law: (1) An invitee is either a public invitee or a business visitor. (2) A public invitee is a person who is invited to enter or remain on land as a member of the public for a purpose for which the land is held open to the public (Emphasis supplied.) (3) A business visitor is a person who is invited to enter or remain on land for a purpose directly or indirectly connected with business dealings with the possessor of the land. Id. at 148. It may be that on the facts in a particular case the determination of the category of the plaintiff must be determined as a matter of law by the trial judge, as in other cases in this respect; other causes will present a factual issue for the jury as to whether plaintiff is invitee, licensee or trespasser under appropriate instructions. Wood v. Camp, 284 So. 2d 691, 696 (Fla. 1973). The question of status may very easily be a matter for the jury where the facts on such question are in dispute. Id. The distinction is only present when there are material facts at dispute related to the plaintiff's status at the time of injury. Lynch v. Brown, 489 So. 2d 65, 66 (Fla. 1st DCA 1986) (Holding Under the circumstances, Lynch's status was that of an invitee unless competent evidence is presented to dispute that Lynch was invited by the tenant, in which case his status would be a disputed question of fact). A. Klub Vibez had a Legal Duty to Plaintiff for the Criminal Acts That Occurred on the Property Adjacent to Theirs That They Used for Their Benefit. After finding that the pub owner knew that his patrons customarily used adjacent premises for parking in order to patronize the pub, the court stated: “An invitor's duty normally extends only to its “premises.” However, we recognize that in this case “the premises” may not be limited to the area actually owned or leased by the Pub because its business activities extended beyond its legal boundaries A duty of reasonable care may be extended beyond the business premises when it is reasonable for invitees to believe the invitor controls premises adjacent to his own or where the invitor knows his invitees customarily use such adjacent premises in connection with the invitation. Here, the record supports a reasonable inference the Pub knew its parking lot was insufficient for its patron's use; additionally, the Pub was aware its patrons customarily used the parking lot across the street while patronizing it. The initial confrontation occurred at the entrance to this lot, which had similarly overflowed.” Bordav. E. Coast Entm't, Inc., 950 So. 2d 488, 491 (Fla. 4th DCA 2007). Indeed, we are unconvinced either Ember or other patrons of the Pub lost their invitee status while waiting outside the Pub's legal boundaries. In the recent case of Alholm v. Wilt (1984), Minn. App., 348 N.W.2d 106, the occurrence of an assault in a public alley behind the tavern did not bar the tavern's liability. The Minnesota Appellate Court found a reasonable inference of foreseeability of the attack due to the aggressive conduct of the patrons involved preceding their departure from the tavern. Ember, 490 N.E.2d 764, 772 (emphasis added). Similarly, the evidence in the present case shows that appellants knew their patrons customarily used adjacent premises for parking in order to patronize the Rodeo Bar. Friend, the security guard, admitted at trial that he had “suggested” that bar patrons park at Ingram's Fruit Stand, and a bouncer testified that the security guards instructed bar patrons to park elsewhere, such as at the fruit stand. Thus, appellants had a duty not only to its patrons who parked on the premises, but also to those who parked on the adjacent lots in accordance with the instructions of the security guards. The jury could well have found that the Holiday Inn and the bar were, in effect, utilizing the adjacent parking lots rent free for their own business purposes. Udy v. Calvary Corp., 162 Ariz. 7, 780 P.2d 1055 (1989), also provides support for the proposition that harm caused, in whole or part, by an activity or condition on a particular premises cannot be viewed as unforeseeable as a matter of law merely because it happens to manifest itself beyond the property line. In Udy, the evidence showed that the Udys had asked their landlord on numerous occasions for permission to erect a fence around their mobile home lot to keep their small children out of the busy street adjacent to their leased property. On each occasion, the landlord refused permission. Through no fault of the parents, their small child was hit by a truck after he chased a ball into the street. The parents brought an action against their landlord on their own behalf and on behalf of their child to recover for personal injuries suffered by the child. The trial court granted summary judgment for defendants. On appeal, the Arizona appellate court reversed and held in part that a landowner's duty to his tenants is not circumscribed by the physical boundaries of the landlord's property as a matter of law. Id., 780 P.2d at 1061. The court stated: “The fact that Georgie's injury occurred beyond the boundaries of the leased premises may well be relevant in determining whether the Landlord acted reasonably, but it does not compel the conclusion that the Landlord owed Georgie no duty of care in the first place.” Id., 780 P.2d at 1060. Additionally, the court held: “Whether the Landlord acted in accordance with its duty to Georgie is a question that must be answered within the context of all the facts and circumstances of this case...” Id., 780 P.2d at 1062. We have determined that an opinion by this court extending an invitor's duty beyond the premises actually owned or leased where the invitor has extended its business activities beyond its legal boundaries would not conflict with any existing Florida decisions. Holiday Inns, Inc. v. Shelburne, 576 So. 2d 322, 329-30 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991), dismissed, 589 So. 2d 291 (Fla. 1991). In fact, Holley v. Mt. Zion Terrace Apts., Inc., 382 So.2d 98 (Fla. 3d DCA 1980), by analogy supports such a position. The defendant in Holley argued that its liability was foreclosed by the fact that the assault and murder did not take place in a common area it had the duty to maintain, but rather inside the victim's apartment. Since the basis for the plaintiff's case was the almost undisputed fact that the intruder could have entered the apartment only through the common walkway adjacent to the victim's window, the court stated that it was for the jury to determine whether the defendant's alleged breach of duty as to the areas outside the apartment was a legal cause of what happened inside. The jury in the instant case also properly determined the issue of whether appellants’ alleged breach of duty on its premises a legal cause of the shooting off its premises was. Holiday Inns, Inc. v. Shelburne, 576 So. 2d 322, 329-30 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991), dismissed, 589 So. 2d 291 (Fla. 1991). Because a proprietor of a lounge is bound to use every reasonable effort to maintain order among its patrons and that duty may be extended to outside the premises, if the proprietor knows his patrons normally use the adjacent premises in connection with the patronage of the Lounge, as was shown in this case, there is a duty of reasonable care. Borda v. E. Coast Entm't, Inc., 950 So. 2d 488, 492 (Fla. 4th DCA 2007) The fact that this parking lot was operated by the city does not, in and of itself, distinguish this case from Shelburne. Although the city could also be responsible, that would not absolve the night club from liability for negligently advising its patrons to park there, when it knew or should have known of the danger. Marinacci v. 219 S. Atl. Blvd., 855 So. 2d 1272, 1273 (Fla. 4th DCA 2003). The case cited above makes it clear that Klub Vibez had a legal duty to its patrons that it directed to park and separately based on the fact that Klub Vibez’s agents knew patrons normally make use of the parking lot for Klub Vibez’s benefit. ? Whether it was foreseeable that the cause of action would arise 100-feet off premises in the public park next door where the landlord had invited and encouraged its tenants to use for its business purposes, is a question going to proximate causation for the trier of fact to decide. However, the fact that the incident occurred off premises does not abrogate the Defendant of liability as a matter of law on the factually specific situation here. Whitt v. Silverman. 788 So. 2d 210, (Fla. 2001); Nova Southeastem University v. Gross, 758 So. 2d 86, 88 (Fla. 2000), Marinacci v. 219 Se south Atlantic Boulevard, 855 So. 2d 1272, (Fla. 4th DCA, 2003); Holiday Inns. Inc. v. Shelburne, 576 So. 2d 322 (Fla. 4th DCA, 1991); Wakefield v. Winter Haven Management, 685 So. 2d 1348 (Fla. 2nd DCA, 1996); Johnson v. Howard Mark Productions. Inc. 608 So. 2d 937, (Fla. 2nd DCA, 1992). B. Defendant _Undertook the Responsibility to Provide Security Services_and Therefore is Responsible Under the Undertaking Case Law. “A third group, which is more analogous to the one before this Court, is premises liability cases involving a criminal attack by a third party where defendants include a security provider. See Vazquez v. Lago Grande Homeowners Ass'n, 900 So.2d 587, 2004 WL 2823096 (Fla. 3d DCA Dec. 8, 2004)(estate of non-resident of condominium, who died as a result of shooting at condominium development, brought action against three defendants, including the entity which provided security); Wells Fargo Guard Servs.. Inc., of Fla. v. Nash, 654 So.2d 155 (Fla. 1st DCA 1995)(victim of attack in parking garage of hospital sued entity which provided security services pursuant to a contract with the hospital), quashed by 678 So.2d 1262 (Fla.1996); Williamsv. Office of Sec. & Intelligence, Inc., 509 So.2d 1282 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987)(tenant brought suit against entity providing security for apartment complex where she was raped in her apartment at the complex); Fincher Investigative Agency, Inc. v. Scott, 394 So.2d 559 (Fla. 34 DCA 1981)(bag boy at grocery store brought action against security provider where he was injured during robbery at store). Burns spends much of its analysis discussing the duty of a property owner in these premises liability cases. However, an analysis of the security provider cases indicates that the duty that arises in such cases has a different basis than the duty of a landowner, that being the duty to guard against crime as a particular undertaking of the security provider to do just that The third district's opinion in Vazquez is most persuasive. In Vazquez, suit was brought by the estate of a visitor to a condominium complex and by a resident of the complex. The visitor was shot and killed while visiting the resident, who was also injured in the incident. Both the condominium association and the security company were defendants. A jury verdict was returned in favor of the plaintiffs; however, the trial court entered a judgment notwithstanding the verdict 10 in favor of the defendants. The trial court's granting of the judgment notwithstanding the verdict was based on the fact that there was no evidence presented by the plaintiffs of prior crimes. The trial court concluded that such evidence was required in order to impose liability. In reversing the trial court, the third district distinguished the responsibility of a landowner to exercise reasonable care to secure its tenants from criminal activity from the duty owed by a security company which has undertaken to secure the premises from criminal activity In doing so the court stated: “Tn the situation in which a duty to prevent harm from criminal activity arises only as an aspect of the common law duty to exercise reasonable care to keep the premises safe, prior offenses, giving rise to the foreseeability of future ones, may be deemed indispensable to recovery. In contrast, the duty to guard against crime in this case is founded upon particular undertakings and hence obligations of the defendants to do so. As to this well-recognized, and entirely separate, basis of liability, prior-offenses evidence is not necessary. This is simply because such a requirement is entirely superfluous to the fundamental basis of the underlying claim itself. “ C. The Violence Committed against Plaintiff was foreseeable. The application of the foreseeability test to intervening causes is normally the responsibility for the trier of fact. Smith v. Grove Apartments, LLC, 976 So. 2d 582, 589 (Fla. 3d DCA 2007). Proximate causation may be determined as a matter of law. See DZE Corporation _v. Vickers, 299 So. 3d 538, 540 (Fla. Ist DCA 2020) (“Generoso’s_criminal conduct was the sole proximate cause of Appellees’ injuries as a matter of law.”); KJB Village Property, LLC v. Craig M. Dorne, P.A., 77 So. 3d 727 (Fla3d DCA 2011) (“Proximate cause may be determined as a matter of law where the evidence supports no more than a single reasonable inference.”). The Florida Supreme Court offered a definition of “proximate cause” in McCain v. Florida Power Corp., 593 So. 2d 500, 503-4 (Fla. 1992). In McCain, the Court stated, “harm is ‘proximate’ 11 if prudent human foresight would lead one to expect that similar harm is likely to be substantially caused by the specific act or omission in question...human experience teaches that the same harm can be expected to recur if the same act or omission is repeated in a similar context.” McCain v. Florida Power Corp., 593 So. 2d 500, 503-4 (Fla. 1992). The Florida Supreme Court has stated that proximate causation is established “if prudent human foresight would lead one to expect that similar harm is likely to be substantially caused by the specific act or omission in question.... However, . itis immaterial that the defendant could not foresee the precise manner in which the injury occurred or its exact extent.” Smith v. Grove Apartments, LLC, 976 So. 2d 582, 588 (Fla. 3d DCA 2007). Florida Courts have long held that foreseeability can be shown by establishing that the defendant had actual or constructive knowledge of third-party crime on their premises. Hall v Billy Jack’s, Inc., 458 So.2d 760, 762 (Fla. 1984). Florida Courts have also held that evidence of crimes and police call logs are admissible and pertinent to determining foreseeability of third-party crime. Paterson v. Deeb, 472 So. 2d 1210 (Fla. 1 DCA 1985). See also Czerwinski v. Sunrise Point Condominium, 540 So. 2d 199, 201 (Fla. 3d DCA 1989). Evidence of “lesser” prior crimes is also probative when determining foreseeability. Hardy v . Pier 99 Motor Inn, 664 So. 2d 1095 (Fla. 1‘ DCA 1995). Crimes against both persons and property are relevant to the issue of foreseeability, even if the acts are lesser crimes than the one committed against the plaintiff. Czerwinski, 540 So. 2d at 201. Additionally, the law does not require “that the prior crimes occur at the same location, on or about the premises, as the subsequent crime in order to be relevant to the foreseeability of the later crime.” Id.; Paterson, 472 So. 2d 1210 (holding that evidence that the neighborhood was experiencing a substantial number of breaking and entering’s was relevant to the foreseeability of 12 sexual attack on tenant). A specific violent criminal assault is foreseeable merely because prior criminal acts have occurred. McCord v. Sentry Prot., Inc., 427 So. 2d 1132, 1133 (Fla. 5th DCA 1983) Here, Klub Vibez was operating a nightclub at the time when there had been several murders in Quincy related to ongoing gang feuds in Gadsden County. The gang feuds and the resulting shooting were well known to the residents and business owners in Gadsden County. D. Survivor, Dorthy Paris, is entitled to Recover for Mental Pain and Suffering From the Date of Loss. Florida Statute 768.21(4): Each parent of a deceased minor child may also recover for mental pain and suffering from the date of the injury. Each parent of an adult child may also recover for mental pain and suffering if there are no other survivors. Here, Dorthy Paris is entitled to recover for mental pain and suffering from the date of injury CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, DORTHY PARIS, as the Personal Representative of the Estate of DRAVON SHEFFIELD, deceased, and on behalf of the survivors of DRAVON SHEFFIELD, by and through his undersigned counsel requests that this Court deny Defendant’s Motion for Final Summary Judgment pursuant to Rule 1.510 of the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and any other relief the Court deems just and proper. 13 Respectfully submitted, /s/ LOUIS J.
