    Case Number: 19-0692

    The lower court erred in granting defendant state trooper judgment notwithstanding the verdict in favor of plaintiff as there was sufficient competent evidence upon which the jury could have found that defendant acted outside the scope of his employment during his encounter with the plaintiff motorist, who alleged she was assaulted and battered. The high court reversed and remanded.
