Description
The question presented by this appeal is whether the evidence taken in the light most favorable to the plaintiff was sufficient to be submitted to the jury. The evidence, when so considered, reveals that a mother took her toddling baby, less than two years of age, into a laundromat provided by the defendants for the use of patrons desiring such a service. There were two automatic clothes dryers located in one end of the building. One of these dryers had no back on it and was positioned so that the wall did not form a back as the dryer itself was at least two feet from the wall. This dryer had pulleys and a belt which operated the machinery when the dryer was in use. The dryer was not affixed to the floor; and while it may have been customarily close to the wall so that the wall acted as a back, nevertheless, on this occasion, it was some two feet removed from the wall and the open moving machinery was not obvious to the mother and had not been called to her attention before the injury to her son.
