Thompson v. Coble
189 S.E.2d 500, 15 N.C. App. 231, 1972 N.C. App. LEXIS 1878
Opinion
Plaintiff strenuously argues that the evidence is sufficient to make out a prima facie case of defendants’ negligence and to require submission of the case to the jury. We have carefully studied the evidence offered and cannot agree. The jury would have to engage in pure speculation of how deceased was injured. The evidence presents a sad and unfortunate situation, but it fails to show actionable negligence on the part of defendants.
Affirmed.
