Descrição da editora
This is an action for personal injuries allegedly suffered by the plaintiff in a collision between an automobile owned by the Boeing Company and driven by one of its employees, Jerry Stout, and a road maintainer belonging to the defendant. The plaintiff also was an employee of the Boeing Company. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant, whereupon the plaintiff made a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict of the jury or for a new trial. The trial court, after hearing on the motion, found that the defendant was negligent as a matter of law, granted judgment for the plaintiff notwithstanding the verdict of the jury, and ordered that the case be retried on the question of damages only. The trial court further ordered that, in the event the Supreme Court, on appeal, should reverse the order granting judgment notwithstanding the verdict, it would be the order of the trial court that a new trial be had on all issues.
