Williams v. Smith

¶1Judgment and order reversed on the facts and a new trial granted, with costs to the appellants to abide the event, unless the plaintiff shall, within ten days, stipulate to reduce the verdict to the sum of $12,000, as of the date of the rendition thereof, in which event the judgment is modified accordingly and, as so modified is, together with the order, affirmed, without costs of this appeal to any party, on the ground that the verdict is excessive. All concur. (Appeals from a judgment for plaintiff in an automobile negligence action. The order denied a motion for a new trial.) Present — Taylor, P. J., McCurn, Vaughan, Kimball and Wheeler, JJ.
