Description

Arthur Castros widow, Aurora Castro, and their children obtained a judgment against Southern Pacific Company, its engineer, and fireman, for damages arising out of Castros death at a railroad intersection in Floresville, Texas. The court of civil appeals affirmed the judgment of the trial court. 473 S.W.2d 577. The question presented by this appeal is whether the jury verdict will support the conclusion of the courts below that Castros contributory negligence in violating Section 86(c) of Article 6701d, Vern.Tex.Civ.Stats., was excused. We hold that it was not. We reverse the judgments below and remand the cause to the trial court in the interest of justice.
