Dictum on Motor Vehicle Registration Buden in Autoist Case
Supreme Court ruling clarifies that a plaintiff must prove motor vehicle registration and licensed operation to recover in highway injury cases. The Dewhirst v. Connecticut Company decision upholds a $200 verdict, holding the plaintiff's truck not in operation when struck by a trolley, and states that burden rests on the plaintiff to prove registration and licensed status before other facts.
