Goodrum v. Continental Southern Lines, Inc.

Supreme Court of Louisiana April 25, 1969

Goodrum v. Continental Southern Lines, Inc., 253 La. 1085 (La. 1969)

221 So. 2d 518; 1969 La. LEXIS 2906

Applicable, Barham, Beverage, Drive, Granted, Misapplication, Orleans, Should, That, There

Opinion of the Court

In re: James E. Goodrum and State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company applying for certiorari, or writ of review, to the Court of Appeal, Second Circuit, Parish of Madison. 219 So.2d 802.

The application is denied. According to the facts of the case, as found to be by the court of appeal, there appears no error of law in the judgment complained of.

BARHAM, J., is of the opinion that the writ should be granted. I am doubtful that R.S. 32:141 is applicable and believe that there is a misapplication of the Dixie Drive It Case, Dixie Drive It Yourself System New Orleans Co. v. American Beverage Co., 242 La. 471, 137 So.2d 298.
