Berry v. American Central Insurance

8 N.Y.S. 762
New York Supreme Court·Decided February 15, 1890·Published·Cited by 1 cases

Opinion

Hardin, P. J.

After carefully looking into the evidence given on the trial, we are satisfied that the findings of fact are supported by the evidence, and are in accordance with the weight of the evidence. We must therefore accept the findings of fact made by the trial judge. We cannot, therefore, agree with the learned counsel for the appellant, who claims in his points that “there is no evidence out of which the court can spell fraud,” in respect to-the circumstances attending the interview between the plaintiff and the agent of the defendant at the time the plaintiff was induced to surrender the policy, arid receive from the defendant’s agent a draft upon the defendant for $400. We have looked at the exceptions taken during the progress of the trial, and find nothing in them justifying an interference with the decision made at the circuit. Upon the main questions involved in the case, we are of the opinion that they are satisfactorily discussed and disposed of by the opinion of the learned trial judge. We therefore affirm the judgment entered. Judgment affirmed, with costs. All concur.
