Discuss this case: The Supreme Court of Indiana holds that the trial court correctly denied Kroger’s motion for
summary judgment and that the Indiana Court of Appeals was correct in affirming the
summary judgment denial. The court noted other courts’ decisions establishing that a
business’s duty of reasonable care regarding its invitees may include an obligation to adopt
security measures suitable to protect them against foreseeable acts by third-party wrongdoers
who come on the premises. Here, sufficient evidence suggested foreseeability, warranting a
conclusion that Kroger owed such a duty. On remand, key facts that were in dispute would
then bear upon the issue of whether Kroger breached the duty. Kroger Co. v. Plonski, 930
N.E.2d 1 (Ind. Sup. Ct. 2010).
