A reader, R. L. Taylor of Renewable Energy Systems, Broomfield, Colo., wrote to ask about any cases relating to insurance for property leased out for hunting purposes–Taylor and his employer lease out their property for hunting parties.

I found a case from Louisiana that might be useful. The case was resolved at trial only to be reversed on appeal because of factual disputes. The case establishes that both the lessor and lessee of property for hunting purposes can be held liable to anyone who is injured as a result of using the property.
