Business Invitee

Capital Account

A person entering commercial premises for the purpose of doing business, rather than just taking a short cut to the next street. it is important since a business is liable to a business invitee for injury caused by dangerous conditions such as bad floors or oil on the linoleum. there is a presumption that anyone entering a retail store or restaurant in which one may browse is a business invitee unless there is evidence to the contrary.
