Patterson v. Brouhard

Maynard Patterson (plaintiff/appellant) appeals the entry of
summary judgment for Richard W. Brouhard (defendant/appellee) in
a personal injury action. The district court sustained Brouhard's
motion for summary judgment on the theory that Patterson's
negligence claim should have been brought as a compulsory
cross-claim against Brouhard in the case of John Hoffer Chrysler
Corporation v. Maynard L. Patterson and Richard W. Brouhard, a
limited actions claim filed in Shawnee County. That case had been
dismissed with prejudice at the request of plaintiff John Hoffer
Chrysler Corporation.
