No. 27,878.
October 24, 1930.
Case followed.
Action in the district court for St. Louis county by plaintiff in his own behalf to recover for medical expenses incurred by him as father in caring for injuries sustained by his minor son when struck by an auto driven by defendant Sailstead, an employe of defendant company. Plaintiff recovered a verdict of $405, and defendants appealed from an order, Grannis, J. denying their alternative motion for judgment or a new trial. Affirmed, following Shotts v. Standard Oil Co. 181 Minn. 386, 232 N.W. 712.
G.A.E. Finlayson, for appellants.
Ryan Scanlon and Lewis, Hunt Palmer, for respondent.
This action grows out of the accident which gave rise to the case of John C. Shotts, father and natural guardian of Arthur Charles Shotts, a minor, v. Standard Oil Company of Indiana and A.C. Sailstead, 181 Minn. 386, 232 N.W. 712. It is by the father of the injured minor to recover damages in his own behalf.
For the reasons stated in the other case, the order appealed from, one denying defendants' alternative motion for judgment or a new trial, must be and is affirmed.
