Opinion of the Court

To vacate an order, made by the court on its own motion setting aside a verdict, because deemed inadequate, in an action brought against relator for personal injuries.

Denied July 21, 1896, with costs, on the ground that the court has power, in cases other than those where the error is that of the court, or where there is misconduct of the jury, to set aside a verdict on its own motion, and an abuse of discretion is not shown.
