Coonce v. Missouri Pacific Railroad Company

BOHLUSTG, Commissioner.

W. C. Coonce recovered a verdict and judgment of $4,500 for personal injuries sustained when struck by a train of the Missouri Pacific Railroad Company, a corporation. In due course each party has appealed. Plaintiff contends that the verdict and judgment is grossly inadequate and seeks a new trial on the issue of damages alone. Defendant contends plaintiff failed to make a case and claims error in the overruling of its after-trial motion for judgment in accordance with its motion for a directed verdict at the close of all the evidence.
