Smith v. Elks ex rel. Elks
Opinion of the Court
Plaintiff contends the court erred in allowing defendants’ motion for a directed verdict. We do not agree.
When the evidence is considered in the light most favorable to the plaintiff, it is insufficient to raise an inference that the accident resulting in the injuries to the plaintiff was proximately caused by the negligence of the minor defendant in the operation of the automobile owned by defendant Mary R. Elks.
The judgment is
Affirmed.
