Supreme Court of Connecticut
Action to recover damages for injuries to the plaintiff’s person and to his automobile through a collision with a street-railway car of the defendant, which was alleged to have been caused by the negligence of its servants, brought to the Superior Court in Hartford County and tried to the jury before Case, J.; verdict and judgment for the defendant, and appeal by the plaintiff.
1Opinion of the CourtCurtis, J.
The plaintiff’s reasons of appeal relate entirely to the adequacy of certain portions of the charge of the court in dealing with the facts which the parties had offered evidence in support of, arid claimed to have proved.
The claims of the parties as to the evidence, disclose that a paved State highway runs north and south in East Hartford from Glastonbury to Hartford, and that west of the paved traveled roadway the trolley-tracks of the defendant railway run parallel to the traveled roadway; that the trolley-tracks are not paved for travel, and in general are used exclusively by trolley-cars.
