Supreme Court of Wisconsin.

Decided April 10, 1975.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

For the appellant there were briefs by Frisch, Dudek & Slattery, attorneys, and Robert A. Slattery and Thomas J. Arenz of counsel, all of Milwaukee, and oral argument by Robert A. Slattery.

For the respondent there was a brief by Borgelt, Powell, Peterson & Frauen, attorneys, and Reuben W. Peterson, Jr. of counsel, all of Milwaukee, and oral argument by Reuben W. Peterson, Jr.


BEILFUSS, J.

Although the plaintiff-appellant raises several issues, the main thrust of her argument is that the defendant-respondent doctor was negligent as a matter of law. The doctor responds by asserting that there is a factual dispute in the evidence and that credible evidence clearly supports the jury finding of no negligence.

Because this is basically a sufficiency of the evidence question, a discussion of some of the evidence is necessary.
