Wisconsin Supreme Court

Decided March 10, 1931PublishedCited by 7 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtNelson, J.

The defendant contends, first, that there is no credible evidence to support the verdict; second, that the defective highway was not the proximate cause of plaintiff’s injuries because the team, at the time the rake struck the hole, was more than momentarily beyond the control of the plaintiff; third, that the court erred in not submitting to the jury, in connection with the question of proximate cause, a question as to reasonable anticipation of injury; and fourth, that the court erred in informing the jury as to the effect of its answer to the first question submitted.

No question is raised…
