1Opinion of the Court

LUMBARD, Circuit Judge.

These are cross-appeals by plaintiffs from a jury verdict against them and by the defendant from a jury verdict against him on his counter-claim. Aaron Srybnik brought suit in the New York State Supreme Court to recover a $3,000 deposit he paid to the defendant Israel Epstein and $850 he advanced for insurance of a shipment of steel.

The claims arise from a written agreement signed…
