Haver v. Central Railroad

Supreme Court of New Jersey

Decided March 5, 1900PublishedCited by 6 opinions

On error to the Hudson Circuit Court. Tried before Judge Nevius and a jury, March 1st, 1899, and a verdict rendered for the defendant.

1Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Gummere, J.

The plaintiff in error brought this suit to recover from the defendant corporation for personal injuries which' he claimed to have received while traveling upon one of the company’s trains. The injuries were the result of an *313assault which he alleged was committed upon him by the baggagemaster of the train without cause or provocation. The trial resulted in a verdict for the defendant, and plaintiff in error now seeks to set aside the judgment entered upon that verdict on account of certain errors which, as he says, occurred at the trial.
