Certiorari to Kansas City Court of Appeals.
Original proceeding by the State, on the relation of William H. Cox, for certiorari to Francis H. Trimble and others, Judges of the Kansas City Court of Appeals. Writ quashed.
S. H. Ellison, M. D. Campbell, and Chas. E. Murrell, of Kirksville, for petitioner.
Grover, Tipton & Mills, of Kansas City, and Higbee & Mills, of Kirksville, for respondents.
This is an original proceeding in this court for certiorari to have brought up the record of the Kansas City Court of Appeals in the case of William II. Cox, Respondent v. James D. Bondurant, Sr., et al., copartners doing business under and by the name of Palace Bakery, Appellants, decided by the Court of Appeals in May, 1925. Said cause was tried in the circuit court of Adair county, Mo., resulting in a judgment in favor of relator, Wm. H. Cox. in the sum of $3,500. An appeal was granted defendants to the Kansas City Court of Appeals, and the judgment in favor of relator was reversed. A motion for rehearing was filed in the Court of Appeals and overruled. Thereupon application was made to this court for a writ of certiorari to quash the record of said Court of Appeals in the above-entitled cause.
The opinion of the Court of Appeals was written by Trimble, P. J., in which all the members of said court concurred. He reversed the case on the ground that plaintiff, Cox, was guilty of contributory negligence which precluded a recovery. In disposing of the demurrer to the evidence, Judge Trimble has made an elaborate statement of the facts, which cannot well be abbreviated, and, hence, we make his statement of the law and facts a part of our opinion in order to consider the questions raised by relator at the conclusion of same. Without caption, said opinion reads as follows:
