Cleveland Allen PARTIN v. CAROLINA POWER AND LIGHT COMPANY.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

April 17, 1979.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James B. Maxwell, Vann & Vann by Arthur Vann, Durham, for plaintiff-appellant.

Manning, Fulton & Skinner by Howard E. Manning and John B. McMillan, and Fred D. Poisson, Raleigh, for Carolina Power & Light Co., for defendant-appellee.


CLARK, Judge.

The defendant's motion for directed verdict under G.S. 1A-1, Rule 50, raises the question of whether plaintiff's evidence was sufficient to go to the jury. The appeal from the granting of defendant's motion by the trial court presents for determination the issue of whether plaintiff's evidence was sufficient on the issue of defendant's negligence, and, if so, whether plaintiff's evidence established his contributory negligence as a matter of law.
