Description
Plaintiff, the husband of Marie E. Olsten, brought suit against the defendant for loss of services of his wife, medical expenses, and damages to his automobile. The prayer was for $27,500. The verdict was for defendant and plaintiff has appealed. This action arose out of the same automobile collision which gave rise to the appeals decided in Olsten v. Susman, 362 S.W.2d 612, and Olsten v. Susman, 391 S.W.2d 331, No. 50,574, handed down concurrently herewith. The circumstances of the collision are not material to the issues on this appeal, but they may be found at 362 S.W.2d 612. Plaintiff first contends that the trial court erred ""in failing to grant a new trial for the prejudicial action of defendant's counsel in informing the jury in this case that the jury in the wife's suit, arising out of the same collision, had determined the issues adversely to her, and for the prejudicial misconduct of defendant's counsel in flouting the court's ruling by repeating the same prejudicial error immediately after the court had ruled that such argument was prejudicially erroneous.""
