Opinion

May 7, 1954.

Appeal from Circuit Court, Bell County; William Dixon, Judge.

Henry L. Bryant, Pineville, C. E. Rice, Jr., C. S. Landrum, Lexington, Ky., for appellant.

Clore Swinford, Pineville, for appellee.


This is a motion for an appeal under KRS 21.080 from a $1,500 judgment in favor of the appellee for injuries sustained when struck by appellant's gasoline propelled motor car. We are of the opinion that appellant's motion for a directed verdict was properly overruled because the circumstances of this case bring it within the rule followed in Wimsatt's Adm'x v. Louisville N. R. Co., 235 Ky. 405, 31 S.W.2d 729.

The motion is overruled, and the judgment stands affirmed.
