Outcome
Labor Ready prevailed on summary judgment. The court ruled that although Labor Ready may have breached a duty to the victim, there was no proximate cause connection between placing the defendant (Owens) at the YWCA and his murder of Cordova at an off-site location, making the causal link too remote and tenuous.
