Description

The plaintiff-appellant, Kenneth Leatherman, was injured in an accident involving automobiles owned and driven by Elmer Boileau and Isauro Garza. Boileau was insured by State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company. Garza had no liability insurance. Plaintiff sued both drivers, and recovered judgment in the amount of $12,801.26. Boileau, the insured driver, was found to be 75 percent causally negligent. Garza, the uninsured driver, was found to be 25 percent causally negligent. After trial and appeal (See: Leatherman v. Garza (1968), 39 Wis. 2d 378, 159 N.W.2d 18), Boileaus insurer, State Farm, paid the plaintiff the limit of its policy, $10,000, plus interest and costs.
