This article will highlight the details of Hass v. RhodyCo Productions (2018), which stems from the 2011 Kaiser Permanente San Francisco Half Marathon. Peter Hass, a runner participating in the marathon, crossed the finish line and promptly collapsed. According to witnesses, the response rate by race officials was slow and confusing, and it took about 20 min for paramedics to arrive (Cote, 2011). Furthermore, after Hass collapsed, someone alerted the announcer at the finish line, who urgently requested medical assistance over the loudspeaker. Despite a number of calls for medical aid, runners and spectators began performing CPR before any staff arrived (Cote, 2011). The trial court initially ruled in favor of RhodyCo's summary judgment motion, deciding that the Hass family's wrongful death action was barred under theories of primary assumption of the risk (Hass v. RhodyCo Productions, 2018). On appeal, the court found that summary judgment was not justified as grounded on the primary assumption of risk. Further, the deficient medical aid would reveal a significant change from the standard of care for physical activity events. As a result, the court ruled that there was a triable issue of material fact regarding whether RhodyCo had been negligent or grossly negligent toward Hass's wellbeing. The facts of the case are presented in this article.
