Heading: Liability of Allied.

Text: Plaintiff's cause of action against both Allied and the city is grounded on nuisance. Allied contends that when a tree which has been growing between the side walk and the curb in a city falls and injures someone, the sole liability, if any, is upon the city. This identical contention was advanced by Allied in its former appeal from the order overruling its demurrer to this cause of action and was decided adversely to Allied. Plesko v. Allied Investment Co. (1961), 12 Wis. (2d) 168, 107 N. W. (2d) 201. The determination made of this issue on the prior appeal constitutes the law of the case and precludes Allied from again raising it. Langer v. Stegerwald Lumber Co. (1952), 262 Wis. 383, 385, 55 N. W. (2d) 389.
