Wilson v. Miller

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Hatcher, C.:

This is- an appeal from an order denying a motion to set aside a default judgment rendered in an action for damages resulting from injuries received in an automobile collision.

We first state those facts which are not in dispute.

On February 24, 1964, an automobile driven by the plaintiff, Minnie O. Wilson, collided with an automobile driven by the defendant, Robert L. Miller, but which was owned by the defendant, Frank McCulla. The plaintiff suffered injuries. Negotiations for settlement broke down when the plaintiff refused an offer of $500.
