Ahnert v. Union Railway Co.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The opinion testimony asked of plaintiff’s witness, to which defendant objected, would ordinarily have been inadmissible; but defendant’s cross-examination of the plaintiff along the same lines over plaintiff’s objection opened the door to otherwise incompetent proof. Van Ingen v. Mail & Express Pub. Co., 156 N. Y. 376, 388, 50 N. E. 979.

Judgment affirmed, with costs.
