Description
THOMAS, Justice. On November 16, 1946, plaintiff, appellant here, filed this action in the Kenton circuit court against Roland Cab Company, a local partnership engaged in the taxicab business in the city of Covington, the members of which she alleged were Edna Roland and Harold Roland. For cause of action she alleged that on June 21, 1946, she phoned the taxicab company to send a cab to her home for a trip to some other place within the city, and that in due time a cab did arrive in front of her residence and stopped against the curb where she was standing awaiting it. She stated that it was headed south and she opened the back door on the left side and got into the cab with the intention of taking her seat on its right side; that she neglected to shut the door, which she had opened before she became seated and then reached her hand out to take hold of the handle and shut it; that the city had installed some eight or ten feet south of the place where she entered the cab an iron post cemented in the outer edge of the sidewalk, upon the top of which was a placard saying, 'No Parking'; that before she succeeded in closing the door her hand came in contact with that post resulting in the injuries and damages for which she sought judgment against defendants in the sum of $2,000 for her personal injury, plus $96 for physician and X-ray bills.
