Price v. McCoy Sales & Services, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
1. The granting of a motion for a new trial is a final appealable order as provided in Section 2505.02 of the Revised Code, (Green v. Acacia Mutual Life Ins. Co., 156 OhioSt. 1, 45 O.O. 32, overruled; Youngstown Municipal Ry. Co. v. City of Youngstown, 147 OhioSt. 221, 34 O.O. 122, approved and followed.)
2. The trial court must specify in writing the causes for which a new trial is granted. (Section 2321.17, Revised Code.)
3. Where a jury determines that the independent concurrent negligence of one of two defendants was the proximate cause of the injury complained of, such defendant is not prejudiced by a verdict of the jury finding that the independent concurrent negligence of the other defendant was not a proximate cause of the injury.
Judgment reversed.
