ORDER

Upon consideration of the Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment, the Court hereby GRANTS Defendant's Motion as to all counts of Plaintiff's Complaint because Defendant did not owe Plaintiff a duty to keep the premises at M.W. Sewall/Clipper Mart in reasonably safe conditions as a matter of law. The Court concludes after review of Davis v. R C & Sons Paving, 2011 ME 88, that no duty in tort exists nor are there material issues of fact in dispute establishing the plaintiff as a specified and intended third party beneficiary to the plowing contract.

The Clerk shall incorporate this Order into the Docket by reference pursuant to M.R.Civ.P. 79(a).
