Description
This is an appeal from a plaintiff's jury verdict in an action brought to recover for the death of Edward L. Sharon resulting from a log rolling off a truck. The issues raised by defendant's exceptions and transferred by Keller, C.J., are whether Sharon was contributorily negligent as a matter of law and whether the trial court erred in not submitting to the jury the question whether Sharon was contributorily negligent for loading the truck in excess of the weight permitted by RSA 263:61 (VIII) (a). We decide these issues in the negative and sustain the verdict. Edward L. Sharon was a logging contractor who had agreed to sell logs to the defendant. It was his responsibility to load the logs on defendant's flatbed trailers which would be left at the logging site and when loaded would be hauled away by truck tractors operated by defendant's employees.
