1Opinion of the Court
MYERS, Associate Judge:
This appeal stems from the action of the trial judge in directing a verdict in favor of Safeway Stores, Inc., at the close of appellants’ evidence at the trial of a suit filed by appellants, Frances Paylor and her husband for damages for personal injuries and loss of consortium, respectively, resulting from Mrs. Paylor’s fall in appellee’s store. The trial judge ruled that appellants had failed to present sufficient evidence of any negligence by appellee in the maintenance and operation of its store to impose liability for damages for any injuries sustained.
