North Hardin Developers, Inc. v. Corkran case brief

North Hardin Developers, Inc. v. Corkran
Subject: Attractive nuisance doctrine.

FACTS
Five year old injured when trespassed on multi-acreage land in proximity to two subdivisions in a semi-rural area by a horse after approaching from behind on a dare. Child was kicked and injured.

ISSUE
Whether horses/livestock, without vicious propensities, kept on a farm b/t 2 subdivisions should be considered “attractive nuisance”. 

HOLDING
Domestic animals without vicious propensities are not an attractive nuisance.  
  
RULES
[Attractive Nuisance Doctrine]
-Animals not an artificial condition.
-Domesticated animals are not an attractive nuisance.

APPLICATION
The cost of rendering the farm inaccessible to children would have been prohibitive.
In other case it was wiring that would have kept the children out, here it was more.

While in law school I traveled the world.  Puerto Rico.  Egypt.  Israel.  The Netherlands.  All over the United States.  Costa Rica.  Panama... How, you ask?  I found ways to make money on the side.  One of those ways was hosting my apartment on AirBnB.  If you have an extra room, this is a perfect way to make some extra cash.

Since law school, I have traveled to dozens of countries for pleasure with my family.  It's not rocket science.  You just need to know how to start some side hustles.  Another one of my favorite ways to make money is buying and selling stocks and cryptocurrency on Robinhood.  Join now and get a free stock through this link:  Join Robinhood and Get a Free Stock!
