Fulmer v. Rider

McKAY, Justice.

This is an appeal from a judgment in a suit for damages in which the wife and daughters of Vernis Fulmer (Fulmer), deceased, sought to recover for the wrongful death of Fulmer. Fulmer’s death occurred during an altercation involving Fulmer and Jerry Don Rider (Rider), during which Ful-mer was shot and killed, and Rider and Nancy Hester (Hester) were shot and wounded. Rider and Hester filed separate counterclaims alleging that their bullet wounds were caused by the negligence of Fulmer.
