Frisorger v. Shepse

This is an action for damages arising out of injuries resulting in the death of Christopher J. Frisorger, which, it is alleged, was caused by the negligence of defendant, Zolton •Shepse, Jr., in operating an automobile owned by his father, Zolton Shepse, Sr. On the trial, at the close of the proofs, the court directed a verdict in favor of the defendants on the ground that, at the time of the accident, the decedent and defendant Zolton Shepse, Jr., were engaged in a common enterprise, and therefore the negligence of defendant would be imputed to decedent and bar a recovery.
