PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a judgment for Appellee entered on a jury verdict finding Appellee not negligent in an action for wrongful death.

After careful review of the records and briefs herein, we find merit in Appellants’ contentions and must, therefore, reverse and remand for a new trial. We do not address the remaining issues.
