Charles M. SCISSORS et ux., Appellants, v. SEABOARD COAST LINE RAILROAD COMPANY et al., Appellees.
    No. 74-393.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    April 8, 1975.
    Rehearing Denied May 13, 1975.
    Horton, Perse & Ginsberg, Welsh & Carroll, Miami, for appellants.
    Smathers & Thompson and Paul M. Stokes, Miami, for appellees.
    Before PEARSON, HENDRY and HAVERFIELD, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

The plaintiff appeals a final judgment pursuant to a j'ury verdict in a negligence case. The only substantial point argued is that the court erred in charging the jury as to a county ordinance. We find no error because a party is entitled to an instruction in accordance with the law if there is evidence in the record which the jury could have believed in forming a basis for the matters instructed upon. See Smith v. Johnson, Fla.App. 1966, 187 So.2d 655.

Affirmed.
