Hall v. ROME AUTO. CO., INC.

Sognier, Judge.

Ernest Hall appeals from the trial court’s direction of a verdict in favor of defendant Rome Automobile Company, Inc.

Appellant purchased from appellee in June 1984 “as is” a used 1973 Datsun 240-Z automobile with an Alabama license plate. The purchase price included a deduction for the estimated cost of repair to the front end of the vehicle. Subsequently, appellant discovered the damage to the Datsun was more extensive than he had realized. Appellant returned the vehicle to appellee and sought a rescission of the contract. Appellee refused and appellant instituted this suit.
