Cagle v. Bakersfield Medical Group

[110 CalApp2d Page 78] By a jury verdict, plaintiff and respondent was awarded a judgment against defendants and appellants for $3,000, for injuries she received on March 16, 1949, from a fall by slipping on the waxed asphalt tile floor of the reception hall in new medical offices opened by defendant doctors (doing business as Bakersfield Medical Group, a copartnership) a few weeks before the accident. The court denied a motion for nonsuit, as well as a motion for new trial. The sole question involved is the sufficiency of the evidence to support the verdict in respect to the claimed negligence of defendants in maintaining the floors of the reception room.
