Aboff v. Danzig

¶1Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County, entered April 1, 1974, unanimously reversed, on the law and the facts, and a new trial granted solely on the issue of damages, with $60 costs and disbursements of this appeal to abide the event, unless the plaintiff-respondent Susan Aboff within 20 days of service upon her by the defendant-appellant of a copy of the order entered herein with notice of entry, serves and files in the office of the clerk óf the trial court a written stipulation consenting to reduce the verdict to $10,000 and to the entry of an amended judgment in accordance therewith. If the plaintiff-respondent consents to the reduction, the judgment as so amended and reduced is affirmed, without costs or disbursements. The amount awarded by the jury was excessive and a judgment exceeding the amount indicated is not warranted on this record. Concur—Stevens, P. J., Kupferman, Lupiano, Capozzoli and Lane, JJ.
