Description
HOGG, Judge. These appeals have been brought by Norma Spears and Gloria Sallee, who, along with three other plaintiffs, instituted separate actions against Dariel Burchett for damages which arose out of a collision between an automobile owned and operated by Burchett and an automobile owned and operated by Charles Vencil Spears, in whose car the appellants were guests. The cases were tried together in the court below and will be disposed of by us in this opinion. At the first trial a jury returned a verdict finding that both drivers were negligent and that Burchett should pay damages to all five guests in Spears' car. Gloria Sallee and Norma Spears received verdicts totalling $3,493.50 and $6,467.50, respectively. The other three plaintiffs received damages only for medical expenses. Judgments were entered on these verdicts, but later the court granted Burchett a new trial in each case. The second trial resulted in a hung jury. At the third trial the jury found that Burchett was not negligent, and judgments were entered in his favor. Appellants insist that the judgments in the third trial should be reversed and the trial court directed to reinstate the judgments rendered on the first trial.
