CourtRhode Island Supreme Court

On show cause.

Zietz & Sonkin, James Radin, Providence, for plaintiff.

Grande & Grande, Aram K. Berberian, Providence, for defendant.

PER CURIAM.

In the above-entitled case, pursuant to our opinion heretofore filed, 169 A.2d 906, the plaintiff through his attorney appeared to show cause why the case should not be remitted to the superior court with direction to enter judgment for the defendant. At that time he presented reasons orally in support of his contention that the trial justice's decision should not be disturbed, and later by leave of court he also filed a brief.

After careful consideration of the argument and brief, we are of the opinion that the plaintiff has failed to show cause why our conclusions should be changed. Therefore the case is remitted to the superior court for entry of judgment for the defendant as directed in the opinion.
