PLEA MADE TOO LATE.
Charge Of Contributory Negligence
May Not Wait Until Trial.

When a defendant seeks to invoke
charge of contributory negligence
against plaintiff for violation of
District traffic regulation the violation
must be pleaded formally and he may
not wait until the trial to offer evil
dence of such violation in defense of
the plaintiffs suit. Justice Siddons so
held today in overruling a motion of
the Columbia Hotel Company to strike
out a plea of contributory negligence
interposed by Samuel c. Redman to
suit brought against him by the COM
pany.
The decision settles a question of
practice long in doubt in the local
courts. where it has been the custom
to withhold notice of claim of con-
tributory negligence until trial.
