Counselors,
Attached is an unpublished case from the Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals that discusses, in the context of a jury instruction, two exemptions from tort liability under the Governmental Tort Claim Act - snow or ice conditions or temporary or natural conditions on any public way and natural conditions of property. There is also some interesting discussion, although no resolution because of the procedural posture of the case, of the question of whether successive claims for damage to real property from sewer overflows should be subject to a single damage limit under the GTCA.
