Dunbaden v. Castles Ice Cream Co.
Dunbaden v. Castles Ice Cream Co.
Opinion of the Court
A car belonging to the Castles Ice Cream Company was being driven by the defendant Grundman in a northerly direction on St. George avenue, in the city of Rahway. Behind this car, and proceeding in the same direction, was a Ford sedan, in which the plaintiffs were proceeding. Traveling in the opposite direction was another car belonging to the defendant Newman. As frequently happens in such situations, these cars came together, and as a result of the collision each of the plaintiffs were injured. The jury awarded the plaintiffs Ethel Dunbaden, $650; Alva Dunbaden, her husband, $500, and Clara Paquin, $2,500.
The rules to show cause, for some reason not apparent, reserved all exceptions, and the only contention made before us is that the verdict in the Clara Paquin case was excessive. She had a bad cut on her right eye, which had to be sewed
The amounts of the other verdicts are not criticised, and we think, therefore, the rules should be discharged.
