City of Detroit v. Julien
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
City of Detroit v. Julien, 21 F.2d 830 (6th Cir. 1927)
1927 U.S. App. LEXIS 2777
City of Detroit v. Julien
Opinion of the Court
Affirmed. Defendant’s motion to direct, made, at the close of plaintiff’s evidence, was waived by putting in proof without renewal of the motion; and, in any event, there was substantial evidence to support the verdict. The doctors’ evidence was, in substance, an expression of expert opinion as to the probability of permanence in the injury. A deduction of an unknown amount on account of pain and suffering must be made from the verdict; and hence no one can say that so much as was compensation for lack of earning power was excessive.
Let the mandate issue forthwith.
