This is part 2 of my final I have no idea what a Legal Standard is or how to write one? It is just from the same fact pattern I had with my first question.

Motion for Summary Judgment

To: Carol A. Kingman

From: Samantha Charlie

Re: Healy v. Red Tavern

Date: May 10, 2022

Background

Ms. Jane Healy, who resides at 483 Moore Dr., in River City. She is 32 years of age, single, ad a successful public relations specialist. She works for Ajax, Inc., a large firm, and is number two in the public relations department. She earns $95,000 per year. Healy has already been told that she will become head of her department when her boss retires in about 4 months. She can expect to be delegated a great deal of responsibility and receive a raise of at least $15,000 per year.

At 5:30 p.m. one month ago, Healy was on her way home from work. Traffic was heavy, and Healy was running late. She had a date at 7:00 pm and wanted to get home in time to change clothes, feed her cat, and freshen up before her date arrived. As Healy was nearing her home, she did attempt to beat the light whilst going 10 mph over the speed limit at the intersection of 14th Street and Childs Street heading west. The attempt came to a halt due to unexpected traffic ahead of her. Due to the unexpected traffic, Healy was left in the middle of the intersection at a standstill traffic.

Around this time, Charles Raymond was driving south on Childs Street in 1985 and stopped at the same intersection as Healy. Neglecting the clear view of traffic, Raymond, then, floored his car at the intersection when the light turned green striking Healy's BMW broadside, knocking Healy against the left side door of her car, and smashing Healy's car into a street power pole on the southwest corner of the intersection.

As a result of this accident, Healy's skull was fractured, three ribs were broken, with one rib puncturing her lung, and her face was very badly slashed by broken glass. Although it has been 4 weeks since the accident, Healy is still hospitalized. Her doctors have told her that she must expect at least 2 more plastic surgeries to repair the damage to her face. Since the accident, Healy has also suffered from severe migraine-type headaches.

Because of her disfiguring injuries, she cannot face the publicwhich is a requirement of her jobfor at least a year and will probably carry some facial scars for the rest of her life. Healy's employment status is also currently pending due to the expectations from her firm, Ajax, Inc., she was supposed to get a promotion but also, due to the nature of the accident cannot even meet the public. Ajax, Inc., has offered Healy's a year severance payout, but this accident has probably resulted in the loss of her present job and her prospects in this type of career.

Raymond has a history of drunk driving and has had three drunk driving convictions in the past prior to this accident. He has paid a total of $1,000 in fines, 45 days served in jail, and a suspended license, which, was still suspended during the accident with Healy. On the day of the accident Raymond's boss requested a favor to deliver a transmission to River City; aware of most of Raymond's drinking issues and some of his law enforcement history but his boss was unaware of the license suspension. Mr. Allegretti (the boss) had counseled Raymond in the past about staying sober during work hours. Allegretti & Sons has a blanket liability insurance policy on all their employees and vehicles, with a maximum limit of $1 million per person per accident, plus coverage for property damage.

After Raymond left work the day of the accident, he decided to stop at Red's Tavern before he delivered the transmission to the shop in River City. Raymond is a regular customer at Red's, and he frequently gets obnoxiously and aggressively drunk. That day, Raymond had at least four straight shots of bourbon, plus four beers, all in approximately 45 minutes. As Raymond staggered from the bar and left through the front door, one of the other patrons in Red's commented, "Man, that guy is loaded." The regular bartender, Tony Simpson, who often serves Raymond, responded, "So what else is new?"

Legal Standard

???

Argument

ORS 471.410

"A person may not sell, give or otherwise make available any alcoholic liquor to any person who is visibly intoxicated."

ORS 471.412

"A licensee or permittee is not in violation of subsection (1) of this section if the licensee or permittee makes a good faith effort to remove any unconsumed alcoholic beverages from the person's possession when the licensee or permittee observes that the person is visibly intoxicated."

ORS 471.565

"The provisions of this subsection apply only to claims for relief based on injury, death, or damages caused by intoxication and do not apply to claims for relief based on injury, death, or damages caused by negligent or intentional acts other than the service of alcoholic beverages to a visibly intoxicated patron or guest."

Campbell v. Carpenter, 279 Or. 237, 566 P.2d 893 (1977).

"A professor of toxicology testified, that, in his opinion, such a blood alcohol content at that time for a woman of her weight, would indicate that if she stopped drinking at 6 p.m. she would still probably be showing "outward symptoms of intoxication" at 6:50 p.m.... He also testified, however, that even five and one-fourth beers would "build up" a blood alcohol level of .24 percent in a woman of her size and that at that level such a person would be "under the influence" and would probably show "outward symptoms" of intoxication."

Brigance v. Velvet Dove Restaurant, Inc., 725 P.2d 300 (1986).

"When alcoholic beverages are sold by a tavern keeper to a minor or to an intoxicated person, the unreasonable risk of harm . . . to members of the traveling public may readily be recognized and foreseen; this is particularly evident in current times when traveling by car to and from the tavern is so commonplace and accidents resulting from drinking are so frequent."

Rappaport v. Nichols, 31 N.J. 188, 156 A.2d 1 (1959).

"Liquor licensees, who operate their businesses by way of privilege rather than *206 as of right, have long been under strict obligation not to serve minors and intoxicated persons and if, as is likely, the result we have reached in the conscientious exercise of our traditional judicial function substantially increases their diligence in honoring that obligation then the public interest will indeed be very well served."

Conclusion

(Last sentence) For the foregoing reasons, Defendant Jane Healy respectfully requests that the Court grant her Motion for summary judgment.
