JONES V. DRESSEL
623 P.2d 370 (1981)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a suit over an airplane crash.
FACTS: Jones (P) was entitled to use D's facilities for skydiving. As part of that
contract there was an exculpatory clause that eliminate liability for Dressel (D) but that
at an extra fee the facilities could be used without the exculpatory clause. P was a minor.
P suffered serious injuries when the plane used crashed shortly after takeoff. The trial
judge held the clause valid and granted D's summary judgment. P appealed and the appeals
court found that even though P was a minor when he signed the contract, he affirmed the
contract when he reached majority.
