Opinion

Ehrlich, Oh. J.

The action was for false imprisonment in causing the plaintiff’s arrest without a warrant.

The plaintiff was taken, before a police magistrate and held in $300 bail to await.the action of the grand jury.

The case was thereafter considered by the grand jury and dismissed, whereupon the present action was brought.

The question -of reasonable and probable cause was submitted to the jury, which found for the plaintiff in the suin of $250.

The verdiet, which is moderate, is amply sustained by the proofs, and as we find no error the judgment must be affirmed.

Newburger, J., concurs.

Judgment affirmed.
