Description
DUNCAN, Justice. This is a declaratory judgment action in which a declaration is sought determining liability under an unusual factual situation as between Dixie Greyhound Lines and its insurance carrier, American Fidelity & Casualty Company, and Cecil E. Williams and his insurance carrier, Pennsylvania Casualty Company. The lower court found in favor of Williams and Pennsylvania Casualty Company, and Dixie Greyhound Lines and American Fidelity & Casualty Company have appealed. Prior to December 12, 1943, Dixie Greyhound Lines was operating as an inter and intrastate common carrier of passengers between Evansville, Indiana, and Memphis, Tennessee, via Henderson, Kentucky, and Camp Breckinridge, Kentucky. During 1943, a number of soldiers were stationed at Camp Breckinridge and the traffic between the camp and Evansville was unusually heavy. For the purpose of taking care of the overflow of passengers, Dixie entered into an agreement with Cecil E. Williams by the terms of which Williams leased to it certain busses individually owned by him. Under the agreement, Dixie was to pay Williams twenty cents per bus mile for the use of the vehicles and Williams was to furnish and pay the drivers and provide maintenance and repairs for the leased equipment. The busses were operated over Dixie's certificated routes and under authority of its inter and intrastate permits.
