What is the relationship between a plaintiff and his son?
Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Krahn v Bell, 1930 CanLII 175 (SK CA):
The first question to be determined then in disposing of the plaintiff’s present submission is, what was the relationship in fact of the plaintiff’s son to the plaintiff when the former was driving the latter’s car at the time of the accident? According to the uncontradicted evidence, the plaintiff lent the car to his son to go over and pay a visit at Martins’. The effect of such evidence is to show that the son was simply a gratuitous bailee of the car from the plaintiff, within the definition in Coggs v. Bernard (1703) 2 Ld. Raym. 909, 92 E.R. 107, at 111.
