Torts — safe place statute

Reina Villanueva appeals a summary judgment entered against her, dismissing her claims against Alsum Produce, Inc., Alsum Transport, Inc. and their insurer Liberty Mutual Fire Insurance Company brought under Wisconsin’s Safe Place Statute and her common negligence claims. Villanueva’s claims arise from a work-related injury that occurred while she was working for her employer, John E. Bobek, III, d/b/a Trembling Prairie Farms, at Alsum Produce, Inc.’s warehouse. For the reasons we explain below, we affirm the circuit court’s summary judgment order in favor of Alsum. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
