Court | Missouri Supreme Court |
In Banc. Appeal from St. Louis Circuit Court; George W. Shields, Judge.
Action by Charles McIntyre against Lewis B. Tebbetts and others. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendants appealed to the St. Louis Court of Appeals, which, by a majority of that court, reversed the judgment of the circuit court, and the case was transferred to the Supreme Court. Judgment of the circuit court reversed, and majority opinion of the Court of Appeals affirmed.
See, also, 140 Mo. App. 116, 120 S. W. 621.
Jones, Jones, Hocker & Davis, of St. Louis, for appellants. Wm. L. Igoe, of St. Louis, for respondent.
The plaintiff brought this suit in the circuit court of the city of St. Louis against the defendants to recover $10,000 damages for personal injuries received by him through the alleged negligence of the defendants. A trial was had in the circuit court which resulted in a judgment for the plaintiff for the sum of $2,500. After moving unsuccessfully for a new trial, defendants appealed the cause to the St. Louis Court of Appeals, 140 Mo. App. 116, 120 S. W. 621. The majority opinion of that court, written by Judge Goode, reversing the judgment of the circuit court, was dissented from by Judge Nortoni, and as a result thereof the cause was transferred to this court; and upon reaching here it was assigned to division No. 2, and there shared the same fate as it did in the Court of Appeals, and because of the latter dissent the cause was transferred to court in banc. The case was again argued in banc, and after submission it fell to my lot to write the opinion of the court.
After having carefully read the record and briefs of counsel, as well as the various opinions written in the Court of Appeals and in division No. 2 of this court, I have reached the conclusion that the majority opinion written by Judge Goode in the Court of Appeals correctly declares the law, and properly applies it to the facts of the case, which, with certain additions to be added, will be adopted as the opinion of this court, which is as follows (formal parts omitted):
