Opinion

STOUGHTON, J.

The plaintiff, Sasha Durso, appeals from the judgment of the trial court rendered after it denied her motion to set aside the jury verdict in favor of the defendant, Stephen Aquilino, Jr., in this personal injury action. The plaintiff claims that the court improperly denied her motion to set aside the verdict because (1) the court improperly admitted into evidence hearsay from a police report, (2) the defense counsel misled the jury during his final argument and (3) a juror introduced extrinsic evidence into the jury deliberations. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
