Supreme Court of Florida

Albert P. Gosma, Plaintiff in Error, vs. Tom Adams, Defendant in Error

June 30, 1931102 Fla. 305

Summary

The Florida Supreme Court reversed the Circuit Court, holding that the streets in question intersected for purposes of the municipal ordinance, that the plaintiff's violation of the ordinance was negligence per se, and that this negligence constituted contributory negligence barring recovery. The Court also held that the trial court erred in refusing to give the defendant's charge concerning the intersection.
