Documents in Hammontree v. Jenner

Those of you using Franklin, Rabin, & Green encounter Hammontree v. Jenner as the first case in the book.  I happen to be teaching it today.  Used to illustrate the choice between negligence and strict liability for unintended injury, the case involves the defendant having an arguably unforeseeable seizure and injuring one of the plaintiffs in her bicycle shop.

TortsProf Kyle Graham (Santa Clara) copied a number of original documents from the case, and has made them available as PDF documents.
