Description
This is an action in tort to recover for personal injuries received by the plaintiff as a result of being struck while walking in the highway, by an automobile owned and driven by the defendant. The accident occurred shortly after five oclock in the afternoon of December 6, 1933, just inside the limits of the village of Bellows Falls, Vermont, on the street known as Saxtons River Street. The plaintiff was walking northerly or easterly on his right side of the highway toward the Village of Bellows Falls when he was struck from the rear by the defendants car which was proceeding in the same direction. Trial by jury in Windham county court resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff for $452 damages. The case comes to this Court before judgment on the defendants exceptions: (1) To the action of the trial court in granting the plaintiffs motion that the verdict, as to damages only, be set aside, and a new trial granted, meaning, we assume, a new trial on the issue of damages alone; and (2) to the action of the court in denying defendants motion, subsequently made, to set aside the entire verdict and grant a new trial on all issues. In each instance exceptions were allowed to the action of the court as being legal error, and also as an abuse of discretion. Plaintiff moved, as an alternative to the motion which was granted, that the verdict be set aside in toto and new trial granted on all issues.
