JOHNSON v. NEW ORLEANS PUBLIC SERVICE, INC.

No. 12731.

407 So.2d 514 (1981)

Wanda JOHNSON v. NEW ORLEANS PUBLIC SERVICE, INC.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Fourth Circuit.

November 30, 1981.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jack Dunn, Dunn & Rasch, Ltd., Metairie, for plaintiff-appellant.

A. R. Christovich, Jr., New Orleans, for defendant-appellee.

Before REDMANN, SCHOTT and KLEES, JJ.

SCHOTT, Judge.

This is a suit by Wanda Johnson against New Orleans Public Service, Inc. for damages from a bruise she allegedly sustained when her foot was pushed by an opening door on a bus into the front wall of the bus as she was preparing to make her exit. The issue is whether the trial judge failed to make a proper assignment of burden of proof in the case and whether defendant's evidence was sufficient to exculpate itself from liability.
