Allen v. Michaud

151 So. 131

Opinion

DREW, Judge.

In a former hearing of this case, this court increased the award of the lower court in favor of plaintiff from the sum of $250 to $1,000. On application for rehearing, it was brought to the attention, of the court that, although appellee argued and proved the quantum of damages, no: answer to the appeal praying for the increase had been filed. A rehearing was granted as to the quantum of damages alone.

The case has been resubmitted, and, due to the fact that no answer to the appeal ap pears in the record, our former decree, in sp far as it increases the amount of damages- awarded to plaintiff, will have to be recalled ; and there is now judgment affirming the judgment of the lower court, with costs, for reasons assigned in the former opinion of this court styled Miss Lorena Norris v. S. E. Michaud et al., 148 So. 493.
