Gulf & Ship Island Railroad v. Nelson

82 Miss. 653 | Miss. | 1903

Calhoon, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

It is overnervousness to see danger to the defendant in an instruction to the jury, in a personal injury case, that if they found for the plaintiff, they might assess such damages as they believed from the evidence he suffered, not to ■exceed the amount claimed in his declaration. There was ng .error in giving the instruction.

Affirmed.
