Three friends from Florida were going cross-country skiing in Michigan. Tonya, the first skier came to a stop sign on the trail, waved at her companions and stopped. Pat, the second to approach, was going too fast to stop, veered to the left and tripped over a log. Melanie, the third skier was going so fast she clipped Tonyas skis, fell over Pat and slammed into a tree. Melanie broke bones in her right arm and leg, which required surgery to repair the injuries. Melanie filed a lawsuit against Tonya and Pat in a trial court in Florida, claiming that each of her friends was liable to her for their negligent skiing. A Michigan statute specifically stated that snow skiers assumed the risks associated with skiing. Florida law did not contain an assumption of the risk rule regarding skiing. The two defendants made a motion for summary judgment. Does Michigan or Florida law apply to this case? Explain Scenario 2: Constitution Tom Bundy, a student at P.S.50 Middle School learned he received a D in his math class, which meant he would have to attend summer school.
