Victorie A. Picard v. Barry Pontiac-Buick, Inc. et al.

Plaintiff received contradictory results from safety inspections conducted by defendant and another automobile service provider. When plaintiff attempted to photograph the defendant for a local news "troubleshooter" report, defendant touched the camera and protested the picture-taking.
