Vicki Thrift sued the owner of a convenience store after she fell and was injured. Sidhi Investment Corporation argued that it was an out-of-possession landlord and therefore was not liable for the tenant’s negligence under OCGA § 44-7-14. The trial court denied Sidhi’s motion for summary judgment. The Court of Appeals of Georgia reversed. The court held that the record did not show a genuine issue about Sidhi’s status as an out-of-possession landlord or its right to enter the premises during the tenancy. The evidence concerning business and alcohol licenses did not create a material fact issue sufficient to defeat judgment. The court also concluded that an evidentiary defect in an affidavit was waived because Sidhi did not object to it below.
