Liability to Business Invitee. Sue and her sister, Lin, rented a motel room in Last Chance, Colorado, during their visit to attend their cousin's wedding. On their second night, three intruders kicked open the door, shot a them, and injured Lin. The intruders also took $1,500 from the sisters. The sisters sued the motel owners, claiming that the owners had been negligent in failing to provide adequately for the safety of the motel's guests. At trial, the evidence showed that the door had a hollow core and that it fit poorly into the door frame. There was no deadbolt lock on the door, although such locks were easily available and commonly used in motels. The only lock on the door was one fitted into the door handle, which was described as a grade three lock, although a security chain was attached to the door. The sisters had both locked and chained the door, but still, a single kick on the part of the intruders was all that was necessary to open it. Evidence at trial also indicated that a deadbolt lock would have withstood the force that was applied to the door. Did the motel owners have a duty to protect their guests from criminal acts on the motel premises, and if so, did the owners breach that duty of care by failing to provide more secure locks on the doors of the motel rooms?
