On Motion for Rehearing.
In his motion for rehearing appel-lee Lively points out the fact that appellant Mitchell did not allege gross negligence on the part of Lively. Mitchell alleged many acts of ordinary negligence on the part of Lively, each of which was alleged to be the sole proximate cause or, in the alternative, a proximate cause of the collision. Mitchell did not allege gross negligence. Mitchell could not recover contribution or indemnity from Lively for the latter’s ordinary negligence. Under Mitchell’s pleadings, he was not entitled to recover contribution or indemnity from Lively.
The motion is granted and the judgment as to Lively is affirmed.
