Scissors v. Seaboard Coast Line Railroad
Florida District Courts of Appeal
Scissors v. Seaboard Coast Line Railroad, 311 So. 2d 708 (1975)
1975 Fla. App. LEXIS 15071
Haverfield, Hendry, Pearson
Scissors v. Seaboard Coast Line Railroad
Opinion of the Court
The plaintiff appeals a final judgment pursuant to a j'ury verdict in a negligence case. The only substantial point argued is that the court erred in charging the jury as to a county ordinance. We find no error because a party is entitled to an instruction in accordance with the law if there is evidence in the record which the jury could have believed in forming a basis for the matters instructed upon. See Smith v. Johnson, Fla.App. 1966, 187 So.2d 655.
Affirmed.
