Alexander v. Crosby

Supreme Court of Iowa

Decided February 18, 1909PublishedCited by 13 opinions

Appeal from Poweshiek District Court. — IIon. II. E. Wilcockson, Judge. Action for damages resulted in. a judgment against defendant, from which he appeals.

1Opinion of the CourtLadd, J.

The plaintiff drove his team down State Street in Grinnell, turning west on Fifth Avenue, and, after going a short distance, a dog, as is alleged, ran under the carriage and nipped the hind leg of one of the horses. It kicked over the tongue, striking the other horse, and the team ran away. The sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the finding that the dog bit the horse is challenged, but an examination of the record has convinced us that the issue was for the jury. So, too, the amount allowed as damages has such support in the evidence as to preclude interference by this court.
