O'BRIEN v. Howe

Appellate Court of Illinois

Decided May 16, 1961No. Gen. 10,339PublishedCited by 7 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtReynolds, J.

The sole question raised by this appeal is the adequacy of a judgment in favor of the plaintiff in the amount of $1200.00 for damages sustained by the plaintiff when she was injured in a collision between her automobile and one driven by the defendant. The plaintiff claims the jury’s award of damages is grossly inadequate, while the defendant’s position is that the plaintiff was compensated for damages resulting from the accident and that the jury was justified in concluding that other out-of-pocket expenses, pain and suffering of which she complained were not attributable to the accident.
