Mаny yeаrs аgо, Caesar’s Cement Cоmpany cоnstructed a plant for manufacturing ready-mix concrete. At that time, Caesar’s Cement Company was using bagged cement, which caused little or no dust. Several years later, Peter bought a home approximately 1,800 feet from the plant. Recently, Caesar’s Cement Company stopped using bagged cement and began to receive cement in bulk shipments. Since then at least five truckloads of cement have passed Peter’s house daily. Cement blows off the trucks and into Peter’s house. When the cement arrives at the plant, it is blown by forced air from the trucks into the storage bin. As a consequence, cement dust fills the air surrounding the plant to a distance of 2,000 feet. Peter’s house is the only residence within 2,000 feet of the plant. If Peter asserts a claim against Caesar’s Cement Company based on nuisance, will Peter prevail?

Audrey was playing on the floor of the kitchen while Willa was heating water in a pan on the stove. Someone knocked at the front door, and Willa went into the other room to answer it. While she was gone, Audrey decided to find out what was cooking. Audrey opened the oven door and climbed on it to see what was in the pan. Audrey’s weight (25 pounds) on the door caused the stove to tip over forward. Audrey fell to the floor and the hot water spilled over her, burning her severely. Willa ran to the kitchen and immediately gave her first aid treatment for burns. Audrey thereafter received medical treatment. Audrey’s burns were painful. They have now healed and do not bother her, but she has ugly scars on her legs and back. Audrey’s claim is asserted on her behalf by the proper party.
