Thomas v. . Bus Line
Supreme Court of North Carolina · Decided October 19, 1927 · PER CURIAM.
139 S.E. 926; 194 N.C. 798; 1927 N.C. LEXIS 232 (South Eastern Reporter)

Thomas v. . Bus Line

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The record presents an issue of fact and no more- The plaintiff’s testimony tends to show negligence on the part of defendant. The evidence of defendant tends to show contributory negligence on the part of the plaintiff.

The charge of the court is not included in the record, and therefore it is presumed that the trial judge properly instructed the jury upon each and every phase of the law applicable to the facts. In this situation the jury was the sole arbiter.

No error.
