Description
On the night of September 6, 1944, William Colclasure, a boy nineteen years of age, was driving his familys automobile along U.S. Highway No. 80, a two-lane paved highway, in Webster Parish, Louisiana. Riding with him as his invited guests were James Lee Cheshire and Billy Jack Stanfield, both sixteen years of age. About nine oclock that night the automobile collided with a large gasoline transport truck which had stopped and was blocking the highway, and the three boys were killed. Actions were brought by the parents of each of the boys to recover damages for their wrongful deaths. On motion the actions were consolidated and tried together before a jury. Verdict was for the plaintiffs, and from the judgments entered thereon the defendant insurance carrier has appealed.
