V. EXTRA CREDIT CASE STUDY (10 points) Carolyn is a season ticket holder at Camden Yards in Baltimore, Maryland. She has been a season ticket holder and has attended Oriole games for five (5) seasons. During this period of time, she has missed only twenty (20) total home games. Prior to this season, Carolyn's season tickets have been located behind the backstop along the first base line. This year, her season tickets are located along the first base line in the first seat of the first section adjacent to the last section behind the Orioles' dugout. There is no net protection for guests in this area which meets local code and MLB minimum requirements. During a much-anticipated game with the Washington Nationals, billed as the "Battle of the Beltway", one of the Oriole players hit a homerun. The crowd went wild. Carolyn, caught up in the excitement, got up, went over one section, and began to dance on top of the Orioles' dugout. She did this despite the sign on top of the dugout that read, "Do Not Stand on Dugout". Her dance moves got the crowd going - especially when she was shown on the video board. She continued to dance until the next Oriole batter stepped up to the batter's box. When the batter stepped up to the plate, Carolyn made a move to get down from the dugout and return to her seat. While getting down, the pitcher pitched a ball in which the Oriole batter swung at and lined the ball foul in Carolyn's direction. Carolyn, with her back to the action, did not see the ball coming and was hit in the back fracturing two vertebrae. In addition, the force of the blow knocked made Carolyn fall. The fall resulted in several lacerations and bruises due to hitting the concrete and iron armrest of a chair. Carolyn decided to sue the Baltimore Orioles and the Baltimore Stadium Authority for compensatory damages. During the discovery phase and pre-trial conferences, the undisputed facts led to an inference that Carolyn was 40% at fault and that the co-defendants (i.e., the Orioles & Stadium Authority) were collectively 60% at fault for, among other things, not following their own policies by allowing Carolyn to stand on the dugout, incentivizing her bad behavior by showing her on the videoboard, and for the lack of urgency on the part of security in not responding to Carolyn's dancing by immediately removing her from the top of the dugout. Carolyn's attorney is calling for $100,000 in compensatory damages. Provide responses to the following questions. Remember, be concerned about the law, and don't provide "best practices" answers. 1. Does Carolyn have a case? Why or why not? 2. What do you predict her award to be? 3. And what is your rationale for that determination
