Calkins v. Lorain Division of Koehring Co‪.‬

Mitchell Brothers Crane Division, Inc. (Mitchell), appeals the dismissal of its third-party indemnity action arising out of its lease of a crane to the Roy T. Earley Company (Earley). The dispositive issue is whether the leases indemnity provision encompassed Mitchells liability arising out of the defective condition of the crane. We affirm the dismissal, finding the clause did not indemnify Mitchell for liability incurred due to its lease of an improperly equipped crane.
