Boney v. Worley

THOMAS H. NEWTON, Judge.

Summary

Cass County appeals from the denial of its motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, and for the grant of a new trial to plaintiffs. Dolores Boney asks this court to grant her relief by remanding to the trial court to enter additur in her favor. She also requests that if additur is not granted and the trial courts grant of a new trial is not sustained, that this court grant a new trial because of the improper submission of a joint enterprise instruction.
