1Opinion of the CourtMteks, P. J.
Appellee instituted this action against appellant for damages, on the ground that she had been wrongfully ejected from one of appellant’s cars. The issues consist of a complaint in one paragraph, answered by a general denial. The cause was tried by a jury, resulting in a verdict and judgment in favor of appellee for $400.
The only question presented by this appeal is: Did the trial court err in overruling appellant’s motion for a new trial? One of the causes assigned for a new trial is that the damages assessed by the jury were excessive.
