Description
This case arose out of an unfortunate occurrence on November 28, 1986, when Johnny Mitchell, appellant in this case, was struck by a Montgomery County Ride-On Bus while walking along Route 355 in Gaithersburg near the intersection of Route 355 and Appledowre Way. As a result of this accident, Mitchell suffered serious injuries, including a fractured skull. He filed suit against Montgomery County, appellee in this case, alleging negligence on the part of the bus driver. Following a trial in Montgomery County Circuit Court, a jury returned a verdict for the County. In this appeal, Mitchell contends that the trial judge erred: -- in admitting allegedly expert opinion testimony by Robert Merryman, a witness for the County, when the County failed to either designate Merryman as an expert in its responses to interrogatories or offer and qualify him as an expert witness at trial; -- in admitting evidence purportedly showing that Mitchell was under the influence of alcohol, cocaine and PCP at the time of the accident; -- in admitting, for impeachment purposes, evidence of Mitchell's 1982 conviction for theft of a golf cart; -- in not granting Mitchell's motion for a directed verdict at the close of the evidence in the case; and -- in his instructions to the jury on intoxication, contributory negligence and several other issues.
