OPPORTUNITY THE ‘~ FA M ILY # LAWYER J l Policeman’s Blander Officer Harrison halted a speed­ ing motorist and gave him a tick­ et. But he failed to notice that the man was intoxicated. Scarcely live minutes later, the same motorist drove his car through a red traffic light and knocked down a woman pedestrian. Could the woman hold the city legally liable for the accident be­ cause of the officer’s blunder? “ The city is supposed to pro­ vide police protection,” she ar­ gued in a court hearing. “T h a t’s what we pay taxes for.

Consider the problem of the person who Is an informer or a material witness in a forthcom­ ing trial. If he is in danger, the city is likely to be held responsi­ ble for his safety. “ Otherwise,” said one court, “ it might become difficult to con­ vince the citizen to cooperate with law enforcement officers.” In one unusual case, the family of a suicide victim tried to blame the city because the police had missed a chance to prevent the tragedy. They said officers had come out to investigate a fam ily quarrel, then left with things still unsettled. But the city was exonerated. The court said even if the officers should have stayed longer, they still could not fairly have fore­ seen that the man would take his own life.
