Nos. 9491, 9538 | D.C. Cir. | Oct 20, 1947
Appellants, who were defendants in a personal injury action, contend among other things that the charge to the jury was defective and that the $20,000 verdict was excessive. We find no error either in the charge or elsewhere. It is settled that we cannot review a trial court’s decision to grant or deny a new trial on the ground that a verdict was excessive or inadequate. Washington Times Co. v. Bonner, 66 App. D.C. 280, 86 F.2d 836, 110 A.L.R. 393.
Affirmed.
