Detailed brief writing, and a thorough understanding of appellate procedure, ultimately led the Court of Appeals to unanimously decide that a snow covered curb was open and obvious and presented no special aspects, where the presence of snow and ice was readily apparent, and the plaintiff knew there was a curb in the general vicinity of her fall based upon prior visits to this apartment complex.
