1Opinion of the CourtMcAllister, C. J.

This is an action against Lincoln Jackson and H. S. Huson to recover damages for personal injuries sustained by the plaintiff, Alfred T. Britton, when his automobile was struck from the rear by a pickup driven by the defendant Jackson. The jury returned a verdict in favor of both defendants. Plaintiff appeals only from the judgment entered for the defendant Jackson.

Plaintiff assigns as error the refusal of the court to instruct the jury that the defendant Jackson was negligent as a matter of law in failing to keep a proper lookout and the giving of an instruction on the sudden emergency rule.
