Hunsucker v. Belford

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• reversing denial of summary judgment because no evidence afforded a reasonable basis to conclude that negligent driving caused a collision
• summary judgment in favor of driver warranted when evidence showed that driver was driving within the speed limit on a familiar road at night and, after cresting a hill, could not avoid a black-clothed pedestrian stepping into his lane
• “Negligence is not to be presumed, but is a matter for affirmative proof. . . . [Gluesses or speculation which raise merely a conjecture or possibility are not sufficient to create even an inference of fact for consideration on summary judgment.”
