Facts
Wilson (D1) provided funding for her grandnephew to purchase a car. Ace Auto Sales, Inc. (D2) sold the vehicle to the driver, and Gardner (D3) was the salesman. Vince (P) was seriously injured in an auto accident with the grandnephew. The evidence indicates that D1 knew that her grandnephew had no driver's license and had failed the driver's test several times. D1 had communicated this fact to D3 prior to the sale of the vehicle. D1 was also aware of the fact that her grandnephew abused drugs and alcohol, and evidence tended to show that the operator's inexperience and lack of training contributed to the accident. The trial court directed verdicts in favor of the D2 and D3. P appealed this ruling. The claim against D1 went to the jury, which returned a verdict for P. D1 appealed.
