Fisher v. Bartley
New York Court of Appeals · Decided July 13, 1937
11 N.E.2d 301; 275 N.Y. 469; 1937 N.Y. LEXIS 1457 (North Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Fisher v. Bartley

Opinion of the Court

Judgments reversed and new trial ordered, with costs to abide the event. It was error to instruct the jury in the text of the memorandum decision of the Appellate Division rendered on the former appeal (246 App. Div. 609). These instructions in effect allowed the jury to find the defendants liable for a mere error of judgment. No opinion. (See 275 N. Y. 544.)

Concur: Crane, Ch. J., Lehman, O’Brien and Lough-ran, JJ. Dissenting: Hubbs, Finch and Rippey, JJ.
