Louisville Taxicab Transfer Company v. Lane

Court of Appeals of Kentucky
May 7, 1954
267 S.W.2d 941 (Ky. Ct. App. 1954)

Opinion

May 7, 1954.

Appeal from Circuit Court, Common Pleas Branch, Fifth Division, Jefferson County; Lawrence S. Grauman, Judge.

Robert L. Page, Louisville, for appellant.

Fred J. Karem, Louisville, for appellee.


This case is before us on motion that an appeal be granted, under KRS 21.080, from a judgment for $1,500 in favor of the appellee for an injury sustained by him when his motorcycle struck the door, which had been opened by the passenger, of one of appellant's taxicabs waiting for a red light to change. We conclude that the passenger's testimony justified submission of the case to the jury.

Finding no prejudicial error and less than $2,500 being involved, the motion for an appeal is overruled and judgment is affirmed.
