At times, an individual may sustain personal injury while on another's property. This may
result from the condition of the property, the maintenance or upkeep of the property or even
persons or animals who occupy the property.
The responsibility of the owner of the property or the entity which may possess the property
depends upon the standard of care owed to the injured individual. The standard of care, in
turn, depends on the injured individual's status on the property.
For example, the injured individual may be an invitee who is invited or permitted to be on
the property relating to the interest of the owner or occupant of the property. Another
example may involve an injured individual who is on the property as a guest of the owner or
occupant. The status of the injured individual may also be classified as that of a trespasser.
