Hendon finds the trial court properly entered final summary judgment in favor of the window and door manufacturer in the laborer's lawsuit stemming from injuries he suffered unloading a heavy shipment of windows and doors delivered to his employer by one of the manufacturer's employees. In part because the evidence in the record shows the manufacturer is not liable based on whether its employee strapped or did not strap the shipment to a forklift after delivery and the laborer tried to unload the shipment by himself despite his employer's rules stating such a heavy shipment requires at least two people to unload, there are no genuine disputes of fact contravening the trial court's ruling and the manufacturer is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
