Illinois Central Railroad v. Cunningham
67 Ill. 316 | Ill. | 1873
delivered the opinion of the Court:
This case is identical in its material facts with the preceding case of The Illinois Central Railroad Co. v. Johnson, and the questions of law raised are decided the same way.
The verdict was for $500, and in view of the facts,'a majority of the court are of opinion that the damages found are excessive, under the reasoning in that case; for which reason the judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.
Judgment reversed.
