Jones v. . Craddock

Supreme Court of North Carolina

Decided March 17, 1937PublishedCited by 1 opinion

1Per curiam

As the verdict is supported by the evidence, there was no error in submitting the issue of contributory negligence to the jury.

The statement on the former appeal, “The contention that the plaintiff was guilty of contributory negligence on her own statement is untenable on this record” (210 N. C., 429, 187 S. E., 558), was hot intended to preclude the submission of the issue to the jury, but had reference to the motion to nonsuit, the only matter then being considered. Hayes v. Tel. Co., ante, 192.

The verdict and judgment will be upheld.

No error.
