However, we deny defendant\u2019s motion to dismiss, treat the appeal as a petition for a writ of certiorari, allow it, and consider the case on its merits.\nThe evidence was conflicting. Plaintiff\u2019s evidence tended to show that he was injured by the actionable negligence of the defendant, and defendant\u2019s evidence tended to show that his property was damaged by the actionable negligence of the plaintiff.\nThe jury, by the verdict, held that the plaintiff was not injured by the actionable negligence of the defendant and that the defendant\u2019s automobile was damaged in the amount of $600 by the actionable negligence of the plaintiff.\nWe have carefully considered plaintiff\u2019s assignments of error and find no prejudicial error in the trial.\nNo error.\nJudges Parker and Vaughn concur.",
