Lewis v. Metropolitan Street R. Co.

Supreme Court, Appellate Term
Jun 1, 1901
35 Misc. 304 (N.Y. App. Term 1901)

Opinion

June, 1901.

Lewis Harmstad, for appellant.

H.A. Robinson (G. Glenn Worden, of counsel), for respondent.


In the complaint the plaintiff demands "Judgment for two hundred and forty-five dollars, with interest from the 1st day of June, 1900." The action being for personal injuries, the jury may award the interest when demanded, if it should see fit. Its demand brought the claim beyond the sum of $250, and the order of removal is correct.

Present: SCOTT, P.J., BEACH and FITZGERALD, JJ.

Order affirmed, with ten dollars costs.
