Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court
Decided January 10, 1957PublishedCited by 7 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtSpalding, J.
This case, which is an action of contract to recover for making repairs and alterations to the Gem Theatre in Fitchburg, comes here for the second time. In 332 Mass. 172 the plaintiff’s exception to the direction of a verdict for the defendant was sustained. At the second trial the defendant’s motion for a directed verdict was denied, and the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff. The case now comes here on the defendant’s exceptions to the denial of its motion for a directed verdict, and to the refusal of certain of its requests for instructions.
