255 F. 664 | 8th Cir. | 1919
The Crane Company, a corporation, complains that at the trial of an action, brought by Mrs. Frances J. Busdieker for damages for its negligence, which she asserted caused the death of her husband, the court below, at the close of the evidence, refused to instruct the jury to return a verdict in its favor, on the ground that there was no substantial evidence of its causal negligence, and the jury returned a verdict against it for $7,500.
The judgment below must therefore be reversed, and the cause must he remanded to the court below, with instructions to grant a new trial; and it is so ordered.
