Brickman v. American Bridge Fabricators, Inc.

124 A.2d 852, 1956 D.C. App. LEXIS 285

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This case was tried before a jury; the trial court directed a verdict in favor of the corporate defendant and for the plaintiff on the first count of the individual defendant’s counterclaim. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff both on his claim against the individual defendant and on the second count of the latter’s counterclaim.

Thereafter the individual defendant moved for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict or in the alternative for a new trial; the court, after argument of counsel, denied the motion for judgment but granted the motion for a new trial on all issues raised by the pleadings; an appropriate order was entered and the appeal is from that order.

The order of the court in granting the new trial is not a final order and is therefore not appealable. 1

Appeal dismissed.
