Hinchy v. Long Island Rail Road Company

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 18, 1985
114 A.D.2d 936 (N.Y. App. Div. 1985)

Opinion

November 18, 1985

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Cannavo, J.).


Order affirmed and judgment affirmed, insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

It is the function of the jury to determine the extent of damages sustained by an injured plaintiff, and its assessment will not be disturbed unless it is shocking to the conscience of the court (see, Juiditta v Bethlehem Steel Corp., 75 A.D.2d 126, 138). We have reviewed the record and find no basis for disturbing the jury's assessment of the injured plaintiff's damages. Mollen, P.J., Thompson, Brown and Lawrence, JJ., concur.
