Hamlin v. Pacific Electric Ry. Co.
California Supreme Court
The facts are stated in the opinion of the court.
1Opinion of the CourtSloss, J.
This action was brought by the plaintiff to recover damages for personal injuries sustained by him. Plaintiff was riding on a bicycle along a street in the city of Los Angeles, when he was overtaken and struck by an electric car operated by the defendant. The verdict was in favor of the defendant, and plaintiff appeals from the judgment upon this verdict and from an order denying his motion for a new trial.
The only points made by appellant are that the court erred in giving two instructions to the jury, and in refusing to give a third one upon the request of the plaintiff.
