Matters v. Rebmann

Order setting aside verdict and granting a new trial reversed upon the law and the facts, with costs, and judgment unanimously directed for plaintiff upon the verdict as rendered. We think the jury’s estimate of damages should not have been interfered with, as the amount awarded was within the province of the jury who found the defendant had uttered the slander charged. Kelly, P. J., Jaycox, Manning, Young and Kapper JJ., concur.
