Hoar v. Public Service Electric Co.

Supreme Court of New Jersey·Decided August 10, 1926·Published·Cited by 2 cases

Opinion

Pee Cueiam.

Plaintiff has a verdict for $5,500.

The deceased was a boy slightly under seventeen years of age, of limited education, physically strong, but indolent and unambitious.

The only ground urged is that the verdict is excessive. We think it is, and unless plaintiff will consent to a reduction to the sum of $4,000 the rule to show cause will be made absolute.
