Royal Crown Bottling Co. v. Terry

Carlbton Harris, Chief Justice.

In the case of Moon Distributors, Inc. v. White, 245 Ark. 627, 434 S.W. 2d 56, I dissented because of the fact that I considered the presentation of a case based on specific acts of negligence, and also negligence on the theory of res ipsa loquitur, to be inconsistent, and, to some extent, confusing to a jury. However, the court held to the contrary, and I am, of course, bound by that opinion. Here, a similar situation exists, i.e., specific evidence is offered relative to tlio cause of tlie explosion — but res ipsa loquitur is also relied upon.
