A premises liability action.

A property owner has a duty to keep the property in a reasonably safe condition in view of all the circumstances. In a premises liability case, a defendant property owner, or a party in possession or control of real property, who moves for summary judgment has the initial burden of making a prima facie showing that it neither created the alleged defective condition nor had actual or constructive notice of its existence.
