Description
These three cases grew out of an automobile accident occurring at the intersection of Western and University avenues in the city of St. Paul about four oclock in the morning of November 7, 1931. The two Jacobsen women were passengers in an automobile which was struck by the defendants car, and they seek to recover damages. The suit by Chris P. Jacobsen is to recover for loss of services and for expenses in connection with the injuries to his wife, Samonthia. The trial court submitted the question of the contributory negligence of the Jacobsen women to the jury, which found in favor of the defendants, and the cases came here upon appeal from the judgments entered pursuant to the verdicts after the denial of plaintiffs motions for a new trial, the sole question presented being whether or not the court erred in submitting the question of contributory negligence to the jury. There appears to be no doubt about the negligence of the defendants, and hence if the women were free from contributory negligence as a matter of law a new trial must be ordered.
