20 N.Y. St. Rptr. 100

Robert McBride, App’lt, v. Richard Van Fleet, Resp’t.

(New York Common Pleas,

General Term,

Filed December 3, 1888.)

Appeal—Power of common pleas on appeal prom city court— Verdict.

It is not in the power of the general term of Hew York common pleas to set aside a verdict given in the city court on the ground that it is against the weight of evidence.

Appeal by plaintiff from a judgment of the general term of the city court, affirming a judgment entered against the plaintiff on the verdict of a jury, and also affirming an order denying plaintiff’s motion for a new trial on the minutes.

Thornton, Earl & Kiendel, for app’lt; L. A. Qiegerich, for resp't.

Per Curiam.

We think that a verdict for the plaintiff ought to have been rendered, but it is not in our power to set aside a verdict given in this city court, on the ground that it is against the weight of evidence.

We find no error that would justify a reversal in any of the rulings at the trial.

No course is open to us but to affirm the judgment and order appealed from, with costs.
