City of Crossville v. Haynes8/12/2005
dispatchers. Thus, at the conclusion of the trial, the only verdict was against the City of Crossville on the claim that Crossville was vicariously liable for the "neglect, carelessness or unskillfulness or some agent, officer or employee" pursuant to § 11-47-190, Ala. Code 1975. However, because the jury found that no agent, officer, or employee of the City of Crossville had acted neglectfully, carelessly, or unskillfully, the element of causation is lacking. The verdict against the City of Crossville cannot stand.
We reverse the judgment against the City of Crossville and remand the cause to the trial court for entry of a judgment as a matter of law in favor of the City of Crossville.
REVERSED AND REMANDED WITH DIRECTIONS.
Nabers, C.J., and See, Harwood, and Bolin, JJ., concur.
