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

PER CURIAM.

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.
