State Farm Mut. Automobile Ins. v. Doughty
State Farm Mut. Automobile Ins. v. Doughty
Opinion of the Court
The only question of substance involved in this case is whether or not the verdict is excessive, and a number of cases from the state courts of Louisiana are cited in support of that contention by appellant. The quantum of a verdict, however, is for the jury and the court below. This Court has no jurisdiction to correct a verdict merely because it is excessive. See Houston Coca-Cola Bottling Co. v. Kelley, 5
Judgment below is affirmed.
