Appeal by defendant from an order of the district court for Polk county, Watts, J., denying a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict or for a new trial, after a trial and verdict in favor of plaintiff for $150.

1Opinion of the CourtElliott, J.

This action was brought to compel specific performance of a contract to convey real estate and to recover damages alleged to have been caused by the defendant’s failure and refusal to carry out and perform her agreement to convey. As the case was tried, the action was treated by all parties as one for damages. It appears to have been tried by the court and a jury without objection. ' At the close of the evidence the court directed a verdict for the plaintiff, and the defendant appeals from an order denying her motion for a judgment in her favor notwithstanding the verdict, or for a new trial.
