Description
Edgar Fouche was injured in a collision while driving a 1972 Dodge Colt automobile manufactured in Japan for Chrysler Motors Corporation, and sold by Wilson Motors, Inc. Fouche sued Chrysler and Wilson Motors for damages, alleging that defects in the drivers seat belt and energy-absorbing steering column had increased or "enhanced" his injuries. Following presentation of Fouches case-in-chief to a jury, the district Judge granted motions for directed verdict in favor of Chrysler and Wilson Motors. The court later denied Fouches motion for a new trial, and motions by Chrysler and Wilson Motors for award of attorney fees. Fouche has appealed the dismissal; Chrysler and Wilson Motors have cross-appealed the denial of attorney fees. We reverse the judgment and remand the cause to the district court.
