Yocum v. Reading City
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided March 18, 1912 · Brown, Elkin, Fell, Mestrezat, Stewart
235 Pa. 552; 84 A. 510; 1912 Pa. LEXIS 586

Yocum v. Reading City

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

The negligence of the city in not maintaining its streets in a safe condition, if not conceded was not disputed and the' only question at the trial was whether the plaintiff made out a case clear of contributory negligence. On this subject nothing can be added to what is said by Judge Endlich in discharging the rules for a new trial and for judgment non obstante veredicto.

The judgment is affirmed.
