The opinion

JUSTICE NELSON

specially concurs.

I concur with the result reached in our opinion because I am satisfied that application of our decision in Harrison v. Chance (1990), 244 Mont. 215 , 797 P.2d 200 , mandates that result. I do not, however, read our opinion as a refusal to recognize the tort of negligent retention in a case involving different underlying facts. As far as I am concerned, that issue remains to be decided in the future.
