Duley v. Plourde
Supreme Court of Connecticut

1Opinion of the CourtMacDonald, J.
In this appeal from a judgment rendered for the plaintiff in an automobile negligence action, the defendants have claimed error in several rulings on evidence and in the court’s charge to the jury, but the principal issue raised is whether the court erred in denying the defendants’ motions for a directed verdict and to set aside the plaintiff’s verdict because of the failure of the plaintiff to sustain her burden of proof of negligence on the part of the defendant operator. The facts, as summarized in the briefs, are not in dispute and, insofar as relevant, are hereinafter set forth.
