Description
In a negligence action, jury verdict of $5,550 was awarded plaintiff for personal injuries. Upon motion of defendants, the court below, deeming the sum awarded to be "grossly excessive" under the evidence, granted a new trial as to damages, but denied it as to liability, the court determining this issue to have been correctly resolved by the jury. Plaintiff, as an aggrieved party, seeks review of the order granting new trial, contending that the trial judge incorrectly weighed the evidence as to damages and substituted his verdict for that of the jury; further, she asserts that the amount of damages in the light of the evidence is not excessive.
