Jocco, this is far different then yesterdays question. If the homeowner directed the carpenter as to what to do and the homeowner has dominion and control over the tools and ladder and premises AND IF HE EXPOSED THE CARPENTER TO A REASONABLY FORSSEEABLE RISK OF INJURY (that's a fact question for judge or jury) and such was the proximate cause of injury subject to law and fact YES HE COULD POSSIBLE BE FOUND LIABLE. Especially if the roof or ladder had some sort of a default the homeowner concealed!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you have dominion and control over the premises and tools and equipment and any are defective you best fix them and warn the carpenter!!!! Then if he uses them anyway he has assumed the risk and may be found guilty of contributory negligence!!!!
Defenses however may be contributory negligence or comparative fault or assumption of the risk, SO UNTIL THE TRIER OF FACT HAS DETERMINED THE FACTS AND THEN THE JUDGE APPLES LOCAL LAW TO THE FACTS, NO ONE HERE (lay or even professional) CAN SAY OR JUDGE THE ANSWER.........
The homeowner may or may not have some sort of blanket liability coverage that pays if the homeowner is sued for injuries on his property. Again its what the policy says that matters NOT WHAT ANYONE HERE THINKS OR WHAT THEIR OWN POLICY SAYS
Don't forger the basis of Torts and injury liability is based on the legal notion DEFENDANT HAS A DUTY TO NOT EXPOSE THE PLAINTIFF TO A REASONABLY FORSEEABLE RISK OF INJURY. If he does and such was the proximate cause of injury (both fact questions) he may be liable.
Nuff said, no way to describe what takes law libraries an entire floor to hold can be explained here so this is NOT in any way full or accurate or complete SO DONT ANYONE HAVE A CALF
CONSULT LOCAL TRAINED PROFESSIONALS this cant be answered here by lay or professionals

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: 1964 JD 2010 Dsl - Part 2 - by Jim Nielsen. Despite having to disassemble the majority of my John Deere 2010's diesel engine, I was still hopeful I could leave the engine-complete with crankshaft and camshaft-in the tractor. This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal.
