WESTERFIELD, Judge.
The plaintiff, Mary Hubbard, was injured as a result of a collision between two automobiles. She brought this suit against the drivers of the two cars and the owner of one of them.
In the district court Victor Bouterie, the driver of one of the automobiles, was held solely responsible for the accident and a judgment was rendered against him in the sum of $700, from which judgment he prosecuted this devolutive appeal.
Upon the trial of the case in this court Bouterie’s counsel conceded liability, but contended that the amount awarded plaintiff by the judgment was excessive.
