Description
These consolidated appeals arise from a negligence suit against appellant Wyrulec Company. Appellee Richard Schutt fell and sustained injuries after touching appellants low voltage electrical wires. A jury verdict awarded $368,584 in damages and found appellant sixty percent negligent and appellee forty percent negligent. Appellant claims the trial court erred in refusing jury instructions applying WYO. STAT. § 37-3-304 (Supp. 1989), the High Voltage Power Lines and Safety Restrictions Act, and WYO. STAT. § 27-11-105(b)(vi) (Supp. 1990), the general duty clause of the Wyoming Occupational Health and Safety Act, to the facts of this case. Appellee cross-appealed claiming the trial court erred in granting summary judgment that strict liability was inapplicable to the facts of this case and erred in refusing jury instructions regarding statute violations and assigning a higher duty of care because electricity is an ultrahazardous instrumentality.
