Defendant's Attorney: Denver, Colorado insurance defense lawyer represented the Defendant.

Description: Denver, Colorado personal injury lawyers represented the Plaintiff who sued on a negligence theory.

On June 29, 2018, plaintiff Jodi Sheldon was seriously injured while participating in a high ropes course at the Golden Bell Ranch ("Golden Bell"). Ms. Sheldon sued Golden Bell under Colorado's Premises Liability Act ("PLA"), §13-21-115, C.R.S. She also brought a claim of negligence against Cross Bearing Adventures ("CBA"), the company which constructed and inspected the course and trained Golden Bell employees on the safety and facilitation of various aspects of the course, and its owner, Kent McIlhany.

All three defendants claim Ms. Sheldon's claims are barred by a Waiver, Release and Indemnification Agreement (the "Waiver") which she signed on May 18, 2018, prior to participating in the high ropes course.

A jury found Golden Bell Retreat (Golden Bell) liable to Jodi Sheldon for gross negligence involving willful and wanton conduct.

Outcome: SATISFACTION OF JUDGMENT by Plaintiff Jodi Sheldon. (Chaloupka, Michael) (Entered: 02/27/2024)
