Naeris v. New York Telephone Co.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

Decided July 1, 1958PublishedCited by 9 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtMcNally, J.

The principal issues on this appeal are whether the evidence presented raised jury questions as to proximate *197cause and reasonable foreseeability in respect of the defendant-appellant’s act of double parking and the accident. The learned trial court, in dismissing the complaint at the close of the proof, assumed the defendant’s truck was double parked, that the act of the defendant was negligent, but concluded, as a matter of law, that the negligence was not the proximate cause of the occurrence. A proper consideration of the issues requires a detailed narrative of the circumstances.
