By the Court.
delivering the opinion.
We have repeatedly held, that a reviewing Court should not disturb the verdict of a jury, where there is some evidence on both sides, even though the verdict be against the strong preponderance of the testimony, unless that preponderance be so
There was some evidence here for the defendant, although the weight of testimony was against the verdict. But we see nothing to authorize the conclusion, that this was so, to such an extent as to indicate improper bias, or gross misapprehension; and therefore we think the Court erred in granting a new trial.
Let the judgment be reversed.
