The article mentioned Federal Court, not Mass State Court, I do not know if the concept of "Attractive Nuisance" applies there. It does in may states. Is it dumb to get drunk and drown in your neighbor's swimming pool? Most of would say yes, but many jurisdictions require fences or covers to keep little kids from drowning, and if you didn't have one, or if the gate was unlocked you could be liable (in many states)even though the victim was not a child, because if you had taken the required precautions it might not have happened. |
