Parrish v. Newton

Darrell Hickman, Justice.

This is an automobile accident case. The jury returned a verdict in favor of appellants, Mr. and Mrs. Parrish, and awarded them a total of $5,300 in damages. The Parrishes filed a motion for a new trial, claiming evidentiary errors and an inadequate verdict, which the court denied. Finding no error, we affirm.

The accident happened April 14, 1987, on Highway 68 in Springdale. Appellee Charles Newton was driving his father’s car. While attempting to enter Highway 68 from a side road, Charles pulled out in front of the Parrish car, causing the accident.
