The trial court granted summary judgment for the defendants, concluding that Raybourn's claims were barred by liability waivers and the Equine Liability Act. The appellate court affirmed, holding that Raybourn's volunteer activities constituted \"equine activities\" and her injuries arose from inherent risks covered by the Equine Liability Act, thus shielding the defendants from liability.","primaryTopic":"personal-injury","topicSlugs":["personal-injury","negligence","governmental-immunity","summary-judgment","other"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=215255","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/cristina-raybourn-v-changing-leads-equine-rescue-woodson-hill-equestrian-d86708","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"personal-injury","label":"Personal Injury","href":"/practice-areas/personal-injury","score":32,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: personal-injury","topic: personal-injury","topic: negligence"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/personal-injury"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: summary-judgment"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
