White v. Keller

Supreme Court of North Carolina

Decided April 13, 1955No. 314PublishedCited by 10 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtDeviN, J.

By this appeal the defendant Keller seeks to review the ruling of the trial judge in denying his motion for judgment of nonsuit as to plaintiff White’s action, and in setting aside the verdict as contrary to the weight of the evidence. As the verdict was set aside by the judge in the exercise of his discretionary power, his action may not be reviewed, in the absence of any suggestion of abuse of discretion. Anderson v. Holland, 209 N.C. 746, 184 S.E. 511; Hawley v. Powell, 222 N.C. 713, 24 S.E. 2d 523; Poniros v. Teer Co., 236 N.C. 145, 72 S.E. 2d 9.
