The jury found Popular, P, and D guilty of negligence. The judgment entered by the court denied Popular any recovery against D and denied D any recovery against P. P sued D for negligence from the same accident. D claimed that P was guilty of contributory negligence and that the jury's findings in the first action were res judicata. Judgment was entered for D. P appealed.
