Description
On March 14, 1969 plaintiff suffered injuries while riding as a passenger in the upper portion of a camper vehicle driven by defendant Wilson. Although the wheels of the camper vehicle did not leave the road pavement, the upper portion of the vehicle struck a utility pole which stood at the base seven inches from the face of the curb but which inclined slightly toward the center of the roadway. Plaintiff filed her complaint against defendant Wilson in the Circuit Court of the First Circuit. Defendant Wilson brought in as third-party defendants Gordon Morse,*fn1 Hawaiian Telephone Company, Hilo Electric Light Company, John Keawe and the County of Hawaii. Before commencement of trial, defendant Wilson and all third-party defendants except the County of Hawaii paid the plaintiff $118,000.00 in return for a release which ran to all defendants, including the non-settling County of Hawaii. The posture of the case then became that of an action for contribution by the settling defendants against the County of Hawaii. The jury found the County 30% at fault. The court rendered judgment against the County and in favor of the settling defendants in the amount of $35,400 or 30% of the settlement of $118,000. A court order pursuant to a stipulation by the settling defendants apportioned the judgment as follows: $8,106.60 in favor of Hawaiian Telephone Company, $6,973.80 in favor of Hilo Electric Light Company, Ltd., and $20,319.60 in favor of defendants Morse and Keawe.
