[¶ 9] In 2005, Benham filed a complaint in the Superior Court against Morton & Furbish and the Carons alleging that they had negligently designed and permitted the dangerous condition of the cottage’s attic stairs to exist on the premises, as well as breach of express and implied warranties that the premises would be fit for human habitation and occupancy and would be fit for the purpose of a vacation rental property. Morton & Furbish filed a motion for a summary judgment on all counts of Benham’s complaint, contending that no duty was owed to Benham to prevent her injuries and that there was no evidence of a breach of express or implied warranty. The Carons also filed a motion for a summary judgment against Benham.
