Porter v. Schendel
Appellate Terms of the Supreme Court of New York
Appeal from a judgment in favor of the plaintiffs rendered in the Municipal Court of the city of Eew York, borough of Manhattan, tenth district.
1Per curiam
We have carefully examined the evidence in this case, and have come to the conclusion that there was sufficient, if credited, to sustain a finding that the injury to property complained of was caused by the negligence of the defendant. It was peculiarly the province of the court below to determine what credit should be given to the witnesses on the trial, and we see no reason for reviewing his judgment on this question.
We are further satisfied that, although the plaintiffs were not the general owners of the goods which were injured, it was competent for them to recover the damages so suffered…
