Blazosseck v. Remington & Sherman Co.
Decision Date | 23 December 1905 |
Docket Number | 29. |
Citation | 141 F. 1022 |
Parties | BLAZOSSECK v. REMINGTON & SHERMAN CO. |
Court | U.S. District Court — Eastern District of Pennsylvania |
George Demming, for plaintiff.
Frank P. Prichard, for defendant.
That the plaintiff was himself guilty of negligence, whereby his present unfortunate condition was produced, I have personally little doubt, but the jury was of a different opinion, and I cannot say that the facts were so clear and undisputed that the question should have been decided by the court as a matter of law. Upon both questions-- the defendant's negligence being the other-- it seemed to me that the testimony would have amply justified a verdict for the defendant, but I have no disposition to interfere with the jury's right to take a different view, since the evidence was certainly conflicting, and the settlement of the dispute belonged properly to that tribunal.
Entertaining this question, I do not see my way to grant a new trial on the ground that the amount of the verdict is inadequate.
The motions for new trial, and for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, are refused.
