In this case, the Court found that the lack of padding on a gym wall in a public school may constitute negligence in the care, custody, and control of real property, and thereby fall within the Act's real estate exception to immunity. In this matter, a student was injured when he ran into the gym wall during a relay race.
As such, the defendant's motion for summary judgment was denied.

I send thanks to Attorney Scott Cooper of the Harrisburg, PA law firm of Schmidt Kramer for bringing this case to my attention.
