Description
Plaintiffs appeal the district court's order granting Defendants School District of West Las Vegas, Edmundo Martinez, and Ignacio Lovato summary judgment in this Torts Claims Act (the Act) case. Plaintiffs filed suit under the Act, NMSA 1978, §§ 41-4-1 to -27 (Repl.Pamp.1989), for damages resulting from an accident on January 10, 1989, in which Plaintiffs' daughter, Martha, was hit by a vehicle while she was crossing State Road 3 to be picked up by a school bus. Defendant Lovato was the driver of the school bus that Martha was attempting to meet. Lovato (Driver), the School District (School), and Martinez, the School's transportation director, (collectively, Defendants) moved for summary judgment, maintaining that they were entitled to immunity under the provisions of the Act. Plaintiffs responded by arguing that immunity had been waived because these Defendants negligently operated the school bus and negligently maintained State Road 3. See §§ 41-4-5 and -11. The district court granted the motion for summary judgment, and Plaintiffs appeal. The motion for summary judgment was not joined in by the other defendants in this case, and they are not part of this appeal.
