Dorsey v. Dougherty
Court of Appeals of Kentucky
On an appeal from the judgment of the Franklin circuit court.
1Opinion of the Court
Judge Owsley
delivered the ppinion of the court.
Although, in some cases, where evidence has been intro-*183áuced on both sides, it may be proper for the purpose of obtaining substantial justice, to set aside a verdict clearly and palpably against the weight of evidence; yet as in the present case there b«ve been two concurring verdicts in favor of the appellee, although in our opinion against the weight of evidence; we do not consider ourselves authorised to disturb the decision of the court below in overruling the motion of the appellant for a new trial.
