Under the open and obvious doctrine, a homeowner is not automatically negligent for injuries sustained by guests. This doctrine states that if a hazard on the property is open and obvious to a reasonable person, the homeowner cannot be held liable for any injuries that result from that hazard. However, the homeowner may still be liable if they knew or should have known about the hazard and failed to take reasonable steps to address it. Additionally, whether or not a guest was invited is not directly relevant to the open and obvious doctrine.
