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.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Dade County, John Red Lake, J.

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 jury 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.
