McGrath v. Jamaica Buses, Inc.

In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the appeal is from a judgment entered on a jury verdict.

Judgment reversed and a new trial granted, with costs to abide the event. The verdict was against the weight of the evidence. Nolan, P. J., Murphy, Ughetta, Hallinan and Kleinfeld, JJ., concur.
