BASSETT v. BASSETT

No. 46368.

521 P.2d 434 (1974)

Robert BASSETT, Appellant, v. Earl Eugene BASSETT, a minor under the age of 21 years, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Oklahoma, Division No. 2.

March 26, 1974.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jerome H. Blumenthal, Oklahoma City, for appellant.

Kent Fleming, Watts, Looney, Nichols, Johnson, & Hayes, Oklahoma City, for appellee.


BACON, Judge.

This appeal challenges the propriety of the trial court's ruling that appellant could not maintain a suit against his 20-year-old son for negligently driving into and killing appellant's horse. Among the legal issues here raised is one attacking the constitutionality of the Oklahoma statute in effect at the time which defined minors as females under 18 years of age and males under 21 years of age.
