Description
Rehearing Denied February 2, 1960. ¶1 This action was brought by Lorena A. Pruitt against Carl A. Timme, a non-resident owner of an apartment house
located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Ed K. Ellis, as local manager of the apartment house, to recover damages for personal injuries
allegedly sustained by her when she, on the night of November 7, 1957, entered the premises for the purpose of visiting friends
living in a basement apartment. She alleged that she was unfamiliar with the premises, and that as she entered the doorway
she fell down the unlighted stairs and was injured. She further alleged that the doorway opened directly onto the stairs;
that the stairs were not equipped with handrails; that there was no light burning inside the building; that said conditions
were contrary to good building practices, and that the defendants knew or by the exercise of reasonable care should have known
that each of said conditions created a dangerous and hazardous condition; that she was injured as a direct and proximate result
of said conditions brought about by the defendants' negligence.
