D.H. Holmes Dept. Store v. Feil

Ellen Feil and Rebecca Vaughan sued D.H. Holmes Department Store, D.H. Holmes Beauty Salon, Holmes Glemby Now Salon, and Kree International for fraud and negligence in connection with treatments for removal of facial hair. The jury returned a general verdict in favor of the plaintiffs, assessing each plaintiff's damages at $75,000. The defendants moved for judgment notwithstanding the verdict or, in the alternative, for new trial, and the motions were denied. The defendants appealed to this Court from the final judgment in favor of the plaintiffs and from denial of their post-judgment motions.
