Description
Plaintiff appellants Roy and Phillis Frank sued defendant respondent City of Caldwell, alleging that Phillis was injured as a result of a city police officer's negligent conduct in arresting and attempting to take her into custody. A jury found for the city. On appeal, the Franks challenge an evidentiary ruling and an instruction given to the jury. We affirm. On January 17, 1973, Officer Jerry Hamilton of the Caldwell Police Department was dispatched to intercede in a family dispute. Phillis Frank and her daughter and son-in-law, Vickie and James Lynch, were engaged in an emotional argument in the Lynch apartment. Phillis felt that the Lynches were not providing adequate care for their baby, and she wished to take her grandson home with her. The Lynches were not amenable. Officer Hamilton asked Phillis to leave the Lynch apartment, but she refused. Hamilton placed Phillis under arrest and directed her to accompany him from the apartment. Again she refused. Phillis was injured in the course of Hamilton's attempt to remove her.
