Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the court of appeals correctly held that a contract claim preempts a tort cause of action for recovery from the negligence of a federally registered commercial motor vehicle driver

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

Questions Presented 1. Whether the court of appeals correctly held that a contract claim preempts a tort cause of action for recovery from the negligence of a federally registered commercial motor vehicle driver. 2. Whether the U.S. Supreme Court finding that the term “mistake” in the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b)(1) include a judge’s errors of law can apply in a civil tort case involving a federally registered commercial vehicle. 3. Can a natural person be forced into a contract? See. Alexander v. Bothsworth, 1915. "Party cannot be bound by contract that he has not made or authorized. Free consent is an indispensable element in making valid contracts."
