1Opinion of the Court

WADDILL, Commissioner.

The question presented for review is whether the court committed error in directing a verdict in favor of appellee, Charlie Hall.

Appellant brought this action for damages against appellee and Jimmie Craft for personal injuries sustained in a collision between appellee’s truck, driven by Jimmie Craft and the automobile of H. H. Hall, in which appellant was a passenger. Appellant recovered a judgment of $10,000 against Craft. The court absolved appel-lee of liability by peremptorily instructing the jury to return a verdict in his favor.

There is no dispute about the facts…
