Opinion

March 15, 1950.

Present — Foster, P.J., Heffernan, Brewster, Bergan and Coon, JJ.


These actions were instituted by plaintiffs, husband and wife, to recover damages because of the alleged negligence of the defendants. The wife was injured by reason of a collision of a car of the defendant Cervera with a car owned and operated by defendant Stanco. As a result of the collision the wife sustained injuries and the jury awarded her a verdict of $160. The husband obtained a verdict of $200 for the loss of the wife's services and expenses in connection with her treatment and care. Plaintiffs have appealed from the judgments and orders denying their motions for a new trial on the ground that the verdicts were inadequate. Only questions of fact are involved and we may not say, on the record before us, that the verdicts are the result of passion. prejudice or other improper influences and hence we may not substitute our judgment for that of the jury. Judgment and orders unanimously affirmed, without costs.
