Leary v. Johnson
Supreme Court of Connecticut
Decided January 21, 1970PublishedCited by 27 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtAlcorn, J.
The plaintiff brought this action to recover damages for injuries alleged to have been received in a fall on a wet floor in the defendants’ house. When all the evidence was in, the court directed a verdict for the defendants. The plaintiff appeals from the final judgment and assigns as error the refusal to set the verdict aside. “In reviewing the action of the trial court, in first directing and thereafter refusing to set aside the verdict, we consider the evidence in the light most favorable to the plaintiff.” Johnson v. Consolidated Industries, Inc., 153 Conn. 522, 524, 218 A.2d 380.
