Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
EDGERTON, Associate Justice.
Appellee has recovered damages for injury by appellant’s automobile. ' Appellant had a monthly storage and’ delivery contract with a garage, and at the time of the accident one of its employees was delivering the car to her, as she expected, in response to her telephone call. She did not select the driver. There was evidence that he was negligent. The sole question is whether the District Court was right in instructing the jury to find for appellee if he was free from contributory negligence and if his injury was caused by the negligence of the driver.
