Description
STAKELY, Justice. The application for rehearing was filed in this court too late by one day. Ordinarily this court would not
consider it and would dismiss the same. However, upon reading the application for rehearing, it seems to us that there is
a just criticism of the opinion which should be corrected. The opinion did not sufficiently consider the relationship of passenger
and carrier between the plaintiff and the defendant. Accordingly, the writer on his own motion has placed the case on the
rehearing docket. As a result the original opinion is withdrawn and this opinion is substituted in lieu thereof. This is a suit brought by Altie Belle Holmes (appellant) against Birmingham Transit Company, a corporation (appellee), for
injuries alleged to have been sustained by the appellant (plaintiff below), while a passenger for hire on a bus operated by
the appellee (defendant below), on January 23, 1957, at a stop on appellee's bus route known as Elizabeth Station in Birmingham,
Jefferson County, Alabama.
