Description

GALLAGHER, Associate Judge: Appellants, the tenants and guests residing in a two-family building in a high crime area of the city, sued the landlord for injuries resulting from a fire deliberately set in the foyer of the building by the former paramour of one tenant. Apellants alleged that the landlord was negligent in blocking alternate exits and failing to provide a lock on the outer door of the foyer, despite his knowledge of previous criminal acts occurring in the common area of the building under his exclusive control. The trial Judge granted the landlord-appellees motion for summary judgment, stating that, as a matter of law, (1) the landlord had no duty to foresee that a tenants rejected lover would commit criminal arson and (2) any violations of housing regulations were not the proximate cause of the injury. We reverse the grant of summary judgment because the existence of the landlords duty and causation are questions of fact for the jury.
