Housh v. Morris

FARMER, Judge.

This is an appeal from a directed verdict in favor of the defendant thereby dismissing plaintiff’s action as barred by the statute of limitations.

The plaintiff, Joann Housh, was bom with a hip problem. This congenital hip problem resulted in both hips being out of place. The plaintiff had an operation on her hips when she was seven years old. Thereafter, she maintained a normal childhood. She has walked with a limp throughout her life because her left leg was one-half inch shorter than her right leg. At the time of trial she was 57 years old. However, she led an active life.
