26 Ga. App. 747 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1921
In her action for injuries resulting from having been run over by the defendant’s truck, the plaintiff claimed damages for pain and suffering, and also damages' for the destruction of her watch, clothing, and other articles upon her person at the time she was injured. The damage to her property, as well as the amount of such damage, was undisputed. Her evidence as to severe personal injuries from deep wounds, and as to great suffering, was also uncontroverted by the defendant, except as to degree. The defendant’s surgical witness swore that while the wounds were slight in the sense of not being permanent or disabling, they were none the less “painful,” and required several weeks of treatment. The defendant, by its answer and proof, contended that it was not negligent, and that the plaintiff had been injured either by an accident or by her own fault. The jury found for the defendant.
If is not necessary to add anything further to what is ruled in the headnotes.
Judgment affirmed.
