Opinion
No. 73-343 Judgment affirmed.
July 23, 1974.
APPEAL from the Circuit Court of Union County; the Hon. PAUL D. REESE, Judge, presiding.
James W. Sanders, of Marion, for appellants.
R. Corydon Finch, of Anna, for appellees.
Judgment was entered on a jury verdict in favor of plaintiffs in the amount of $2537. Defendants have appealed seeking reversal and remandment for a new trial.
Plaintiffs-appellees have moved to affirm the judgment, on the grounds that the defendants did not file a post-trial motion, and therefore failed to preserve a basis for review by this court.
We believe plaintiffs-appellees' interpretation of section 68.1 of the Civil Practice Act (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1973, ch. 110, par. 68.1) is correct. Roberson v. Leak, 72 Ill. App.2d 11, 218 N.E.2d 819; Farnsworth v. Shops Building, 77 Ill. App.2d 44, 222 N.E.2d 132.
Judgment affirmed.
Mr. JUSTICE CREBS took no part in the consideration or decision of this case.
