Bond v. Rexroat
District Court, D. Montana
1Opinion of the Court
ORDER
WILLIAM D. MURRAY, Senior District Judge.
The defendant has moved the court to bring in a third party defendant on the theory that the third party defendant through the applicability of the last clear chance doctrine is liable to indemnify the defendant for any damages awarded the plaintiff. It is the court’s opinion that the defendant has completely miscon*586strued the doctrine of last clear chance in an effort to circumvent Montana law which denies contribution or indemnity between concurrent tortfeasors involved in an automobile collision. Panasuk v. Seaton, 277 F.Supp. 979 (D.C.1968).
