Karnes v. Ray

Missouri Court of Appeals

Decided May 22, 1991No. 17144PublishedCited by 17 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

SHRUM, Judge.

In this negligence case, the defendants Rob Ray and Joe Ray appeal a judgment entered against them following a jury verdict for $8,500 in favor of the plaintiff Joseph Karnes for his personal injuries. In separate briefs, the defendants present two identical allegations of trial court error in instructing the jury; defendant Rob Ray separately raises three additional points of error concerning jury instructions. Because we have determined that the plaintiffs verdict directing instructions 8 and 9 were prejudicially erroneous, we reverse and remand.
