Barth v. Drago

242 A.D. 631 Court N.Y. App. Div. English

Contents

Majority

p. 631
Walter Barth, Respondent, v. Louis Drago, Appellant.

Judgment reversed on the law and the facts and a new trial granted, costs to abide the event. The court erred in charging the jury that there was no question with respect to whether or not the plaintiff had a broken nose. There was a conflict of evidence on this point, and the court’s charge was an invasion of the jury's function in this respect. Lazansky, P. J., Kapper, Hagarty, Carswell and Tompkins, JJ., concur.
