No. 90-CA-0682.

627 So.2d 833 (1993)

Jimmy HESTER and Pam Hester v. J.E. BANDY, Individually, J.E. Bandy d/b/a Coast Auto Sales, Bill Evans, Individually, and Bill Evans d/b/a Southeastern Recovery.

Supreme Court of Mississippi.

December 2, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Clyde H. Gunn, III, Corban & Gunn, Biloxi, for appellant.

David B. Strain, Coral Gables, FL, for appellees.

Before HAWKINS, C.J., and PITTMAN and BANKS, JJ.


HAWKINS, Chief Justice, for the Court:

Jimmy Ray and Pam Hester have appealed from a j.n.o.v. entered in the circuit court of the first judicial district of Harrison County in favor of J.E. Bandy, doing business as Coast Auto Sales, following a jury verdict in favor of the Hesters. Because the court erred in entering a directed verdict in Bandy's favor because the tortfeasor Bill Evans was an independent contractor of Bandy's, we reverse.
