Steve Owens is no longer a party as DeWayne and Edna Stubbs dismissed
[829 S.W.2d 546]
their cause of action against Steve Owens during the pendency of this appeal.
respondents were negligent because Victor Faletti provided Steve Owens a key to appellants' residence.
In support of this theory, the record reflects that Steve Owens, who is alleged to be the murderer of Tiffany Stubbs, had keys to unlock the tenant's laundromat and that on one occasion Boyd Stubbs had forgotten his keys to appellants' residence and Steve Owens opened the door for him.2 There was also evidence that Steve Owens did maintenance work around the complex, however, respondents deny that he was an employee.
Considering this evidence in the light most favorable to appellants, it is sufficient to show that Owens had a key to appellants' residence and to draw a reasonable inference that he obtained the key from the respondents.
