Publisher Description
Plaintiff obtained a verdict of $25,083 for injuries sustained in an automobile accident which occurred shortly after 5 p.m.
December 18, 1953, on Minnesota State Highway No. 7 a short distance west of Carver County Road No. 6. This is an appeal from an order denying defendant's motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict or for a new trial. Defendant
contends (1) that plaintiff was guilty of contributory negligence as a matter of law; (2) that defendant was free from negligence;
(3) that the court erred in allowing plaintiff to answer the question, "when you saw this object ahead of you there when you
were some 30 to 40 feet from it, did it appear to you whether it was moving or standing still?" and (4) that the court erred
in denying defendant's motion for a mistrial because of the publication of a certain newspaper article while the trial was
in progress.
