SUGGESTED ANSWER:


No, the university cannot be held liable for the injuries suffered by the bar candidate. The facts clearly state that despite the efforts of the university to maintain the strength fo the roots of the tree, it was still blown away. The proximate cause of the injuries sustained by the bar candidate was a fortuitous event and under the law, no person shall be liable for those events which could not be foreseen, or even if foreseen were inevitable (Civil Code, Art. 1174). The event which caused damage to the bar candidate was entirely independent of human will and no negligence could be attributed to the university.
