1Opinion of the CourtHolt, J.
Action for indecent assault, in which defendant had a verdict. Plaintiff appeals from the order denying a new trial. Plaintiff testified to matters which, if true, would warrant awarding both compensatory and punitive damages. Defendant denied all wrongdoing. Circumstances corroborated defendant’s testimony and discredited plaintiff’s. No useful purpose will be served by' detailing the evidence. A perusal thereof creates no doubt of the justice of the verdict. It remains to determine whether any errors were committed that will necessitate a new trial.
