Strakos v. Gehringgreen

2018We do not read t he law to impose premises liability duties on contractors only when the owner has relinquished all right to control or restrict access to its property. 6 T he dissent seems to contend that Levine’s claim sounds in general negligence based on a line of cas es originating with our 1962 decision in Str ak os v. Gehring, 360 S.W.2d 787, 790 (Tex. 1962), in which we rejected the accepted-work doctrine and held that a contractor whose work created a dangerous condit ion on t he property that ultimately caused injury is not immune from liability solely because his work was completed
