Supreme Court of Arkansas February 27, 1995, 94-841 (Thomson v. Littlefield)

Robert L. Brown, Justice,

dissenting. I disagree that the Thomsons’ counsel failed to object to Officer Jeffers’s testimony. The investigating officer had been called as the plaintiffs’ witness, but on cross-examination the questioning veered off into how the officer assessed fault in the accident. The attorney for the Thomsons immediately stopped the trial and asked for a sidebar conference.
