72 So. 288 | La. | 1916
Plaintiff brought this suit for the benefit of his son, then a minor, to recover damages for an injury sustained by the latter whilst riding in one of the defendant’s cars, and the son, thereafter attaining majority, made himself party plaintiff, and now prosecutes the appeal from a judgment rejecting his demands.
The material facts developed on the trial
Plaintiff admitted that he knew 'that the windows were thus screened and barred, and understood the purpose, and that he had seen the warning notices; and, as it is clearly apparent that he would not have been injured if he had exercised the ordinary care which that information required of him, we are of opinion that the judge a quo correctly decided that he is not entitled to recover the damages which he here claims upon the theory that his injury resulted from the fault of another rather than of himself.
The judgment appealed from is therefore affirmed.
