   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  10-2545
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Bye, Author, with Wollman, Circuit Judge, and
   Fleissig, District Judge]
   Civil case - torts. The Minnesota Supreme Court's case law recognizing
   and developing willful and wanton negligence is still valid, provides a
   precise definition of the claim and is binding in federal court; as a result,
   the district court erred in finding the line between willful and wanton
   negligence and gross negligence had blurred and in relying on New York
   case law on the subject; in addition to misapplying state law, the district
   court erred in granting defendant's motion for summary judgment as there
   was genuine issue of material fact as to whether the defendant, who knew
   of a peril in plaintiff's home, exercised reasonable and ordinary care in
   response.
