AS AND FOR A FIRST AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE 4. If the plaintiff has been injured and damaged as alleged in plaintiff's second amended complaint, upon information and belief, such injuries and damages were caused, in whole or in part, or were contributed to by reason of the carelessness, negligence or want of care on the part of the plaintiff and not by any carelessness, negligence or want of care, on the part of the defendant, and if any carelessness, negligence or want of care other than that of the plaintiff caused or contributed to said alleged injuries and damages, it was the carelessness, negligence or want of care on the part of some other party or persons, firm or corporation, his, its or their agents, servants or employees over whom defendant had no control and for whose, carelessness, negligence or want of care defendant is not and was not responsible or liable. AS AND FOR A SECOND AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE 5.
