MCDONALD V. ROBINSON 224 N.W.2d 820 (1929) CASE BRIEF

MCDONALD V. ROBINSON
224 N.W.2d 820 (1929)
NATURE OF THE CASE: Robinson (D) appealed a judgment in favor of McDonald (P) in P's action at law to recover damages for personal injuries that resulted from the concurrent negligence of the two drivers as joint tortfeasors.
FACTS: Robinson (D) was driving his car and Padzensky (D), was driving his car and when near the center of an intersection, the automobiles collided, and as a result, became interlocked. They were thrown out of their course. The Padzensky car struck P near the corner of the curbing, knocked her down, and she was dragged under the car until it was stopped, 56 feet farther north. After proceeding northward from the corner of the curbing, the cars became separated, and the Robinson car was stopped on the opposite side of the street. P's injuries were serious, and, she claims, permanent. P sued alleging that each car was being negligently driven, and that the injury resulted from the concurrent negligence of the two drivers. P got the verdict and D appealed.
