STINNETT V. BUCHELE
598 S.W.2d 469 (1980)
NATURE OF THE CASE: Stinnett (P), farm employee, challenged a decision from the trial
court, which granted summary judgment to Buchele (D), farm employer, in the action by P for
injuries sustained during the course and scope of employment when he fell off a barn he was
painting.
FACTS: D is a practicing physician. He hired P as a farm laborer in January 1976. P
undertook to repair the roof on a barn. The repairs were to consist of nailing down the
edges of the roof that had been loosened by the wind and painting the roof with a coating. P
was severely injured when he fell from the roof while applying the coating with a paint
roller. P alleges that D was negligent for failing to comply with occupational and health
regulations and for his failure to provide a safe place to work. The lower court granted
summary judgment to D on the grounds that there was no showing that the injury was caused by
the negligence of D. P appealed.
