<p>Actions — Joinder — Principal and Surety. Under Rem. 1915 Code, § 5562-37, making the surety upon a jitney bond jointly and directly liable with the principal to the extent of the penal sum, for personal injuries inflicted, the principal and surety may be joined in one action, though the limit of the bond is prayed against the surety and more against the principal.</p> <p>Damages — Personal Injuries — Future Suffering — Pleading and Proof. In an action for personal injuries, recovery is properly allowed for such future pain and suffering as the plaintiff might reasonably be expected to endure in the future, although it was not alleged in the complaint, where the proof shows permanent injuries from which the plaintiff suffers pain up to and at the time of the trial.</p>
