Hanauer Automobile Co. v. Evans

Ohio Circuit Courts

Decided January 8, 1910

Ohio Circuit Courts · decided 1910-01-08

Tie plaintiff below recovered a verdict for $250 against the automobile company on account of injuries from being struck by one of their autos.

Decided 1910-01-08

SMITH, J.

¶1Upon the authority of the Supreme Court in the recent case of Duffy v. Box Co. 81 Ohio St. 525, reversing Queen City Box Co. v. Duffy, 30 O. C. C. 819 (11 N. S. 69), the judgment of the trial court will be affirmed.

¶2*663For aught that appears, the entire evidence not being set out in the bill of exceptions, we cannot say but that there was evidence upon which the court might properly charge as it did in those portions of the general charge complained of by plaintiff in error.

¶3We do not think the court charged or intended to do so upon the doctrine of “last chance,” but merely called the attention of the jury to the duty that was upon the defendant if he saw the automobile approaching.

¶4Finding no error in the record, the judgment is affirmed.
