Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Crabbe, Brown, Jones, Potts & Schmidt, William T. McCracken and David J. Richards, for appellant.

Denmead, Gerrity & Tsitouris and Chris C. Tsitouris, for appellee J. C. Penney Insurance Co.

Gary W. Hammond, for appellee Allstate Insurance Co.

Ronald E. Plymale, for appellees George Kemp and Eileen Murphy.

Douglas C. Myers, for appellee Carl D. Ferrin.
