John Bernardo, Jr., an Infant, etc., Respondent, v. The New York Edison Company, Appellant.

Headnote

Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, entered in the Hew York county clerk’s office on the 38th day of June, 1913, upon the verdict of a jury, and also from an order entered on the 35th day of August. 1913, denying a motion for a new trial.

We think the verdict was clearly against the weight of evidence, and, therefore, there must be a new trial. The judgment and order appealed from are reversed and a new trial ordered, with costs to the appellant to abide the event. Present—Ingraham, P. J., McLaughlin, Clarke, Scott and Hotchkiss, JJ. Judgment and order reversed and new trial ordered, with costs to appellant to abide event. Order to be settled on notice.
