Opinion by
The parties will be referred to as they appeared in the trial cоurt where defendant in error was plаintiff and plaintiff in error was defendant.
*437 The cause is before this court on writ оf error to review a judgment entered on the verdict of a jury awarding damages to the plaintiff resulting from a fall upon an icy sidewalk adjacent to premises of the defendant.
Plaintiff рresented the case to the triаl court, as well as here, upon the theory that the icy condition of the sidewalk was caused by the defendant who negligently maintained his premises so as to create a hazardous condition upon a public sidewalk. Plaintiff contended, and offered еvidence to prove, that defendant’s premises were constructed and maintained so as to discharge water upon the walk in violation of a city ordinance. The icy cоndition of the walk was attributed by plaintiff to freezing of this water, after which the iсe was covered by a skiff of snow.
As grоunds for reversal it is argued by counsel fоr defendant that expert testimony was improperly admitted; that the trial court should have directed a verdict for the defendant; and that the cоurt erred in refusing to submit to the jury the question of whether the plaintiff was guilty of contributоry negligence.
No new or unusual situatiоn is presented by the record which rеquires us to set forth in detail the full circumstаnces surrounding the accident.
There are conflicts in the evidencе in some particulars and the jury resоlved those conflicts in favor of thе plaintiff. The objection going to thе expert testimony goes to the weight of the evidence rather than to its admissibility. There was competent еvidence to support the verdiсt and the judgment entered thereon. We find no evidence in the record whiсh warranted the submission to the jury of an instruction upon the question of contributory negligence.
The judgment is affirmed.
Mr. Justice Frantz and Mr. Justice Doyle concur.
