3 Mass. App. Ct. 757 | Mass. App. Ct. | 1975
These cross actions arose from a contract between Structural Systems, Inc. (Structural) and David Siegel (Siegel) in which Structural agreed to deliver steel joists and decking to Siegel for $54,000. Structural claimed that Siegel owed it money for steel delivered, while Siegel claimed that certain deliveries were never made, that nothing was owed to Structural until delivery was complete, and that damages were due from Structural because of its delay and failure to deliver all of the steel. An auditor heard Structural’s, but not Siegel’s, claim and his report was submitted to the jury before whom both actions were tried. Structural was awarded $21,554 in its own action and a verdict was returned in its favor in the action brought by Siegel. The cases are before us on Siegel’s bill of exceptions. We review those questions of law presented and argued. Flint v. Codman, 247 Mass. 463, 468 (1924). Brockton Sav. Bank v. Shapiro, 324 Mass. 678, 684 (1949). Siegel contends that the trial judge erred in admitting in evidence invoices of Structural charging him for steel because there was no foundation for their admission, no evidence that they were records of goods sold and delivered, no evidence of delivery, and no notice
Exceptions overruled.
