Opinion
March 21, 1949.
Action by the infant plaintiff Harold I. Crane to recover damages for personal injuries, and by his father, Frederick I. Crane, for loss of services, arising out of a collision between the automobile of the defendant, in which the infant plaintiff was a guest, and a parked automobile. The verdict was in favor of plaintiffs. Judgment, insofar as it is in favor of plaintiff Harold I. Crane, unanimously affirmed, without costs. Judgment, insofar as it is in favor of the plaintiff Frederick I. Crane, reversed on the facts, and as to said plaintiff the action is severed and a new trial granted, costs to appellant to abide the event, unless within ten days from the entry of the order hereon said plaintiff stipulates to reduce the verdict in his favor to the sum of $200, in which event the judgment, as so reduced, is unanimously affirmed, without costs. The judgment in favor of plaintiff Frederick I. Crane is excessive. Johnston, Acting P.J., Adel, Sneed, Wenzel and MacCrate, JJ., concur.
