Description
This case arose by reason of injuries occasioned to an eighteen-year-old minor, Ruby Altergott, a guest in an automobile involved in a one-car accident. Her father sued the driver of the car in one cause of action as his daughters next friend for her damage incurred by the crash and in the second cause on his own account for the expense of care and treatment of his daughter. The case was tried to a jury and at - Page 197 the end of plaintiffs evidence the court sustained defendants motion for a directed verdict. The purported basis of the motion was plaintiffs failure to make out a prima facie case showing defendants gross negligence or wilful and wanton misconduct within the provisions of § 31-233, W.S. 1957, the so-called "guest statute."
