Jones v. Atkins

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided October 16, 1969No. 44494PublishedCited by 21 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

Quillian, Judge.

The evidence introduced on the trial revealed that the defendant Jones left the truck parked by the roadside and that the vehicle extended into the road two or three feet without any lights, flares or warning of any kind. There was no showing made that, as a matter of law, the deceased was guilty of such negligence as to bar recovery by his administratrix. Ground 1 of the enumeration of errors complains that the court erred in overruling the motion for new trial and insofar as it raises any question as to the sufficiency of the evidence is without merit.
