Jaquith v. Benoit

45 A. 714 | N.H. | 1899

The question of allowing the amendment was for the trial term. The defendant had no right to demand that the merely ministerial act of doubling the damages should be performed by the jury; for it is the province of the jury to find facts, and the only question of fact in this part of the case was the plaintiff's actual damages.

Exceptions overruled.

PEASLEE, J., did not sit: the others concurred.
