South Dakota Supreme Court

Schuler v. City of Mobridge

August 31, 192144 S.D. 488

Summary

The South Dakota Supreme Court affirmed the circuit court’s judgment for the plaintiff and the denial of a new trial. It held that the city was negligent in constructing a slippery sidewalk, that the plaintiff was not contributorily negligent, and that the jury’s $1,950 verdict was not so excessive as to merit a new trial.
