Poythress v. Hagan Grocery Co.
Poythress v. Hagan Grocery Co.
Opinion of the Court
1. A charge that the plaintiff could recover interest when it was not sued for was not an expression of an opinion upon the facts, and could not prejudice the jury against the defendant. Such charge
2. As to the alleged newly discovered evidence, that referred to in ground 14 of the motion for a new trial could have been discovered by the exercise of ordinary diligence prior to the trial, and that referred to in ground 13 was altogether impeaching in its character, and none of it was of such a nature as would likely produce a different result upon another trial.
3. The remaining grounds of the motion for a new trial, which contain exceptions to the charge and to remarks of the trial judge, and to rulings upon the admissibility of evidence, are without merit.
4. The evidence supports the verdict rendered for the plaintiff, and no error of law appears.
Judgment affirmed,.
