New Trial.
Where there is no error of law and the evidence supports the verdict, a new trial will not be granted.
Appeal from the ON MOTION FOR NEW TRIAL.
This is a writ of entry before the Law Court upon motion for new trial. Motion denied.
John H. Needham, for the plaintiff.
Oscar Walker, for the defendant.
SITTING: WILLIAMSON, C.J., WEBBER, BELIVEAU, TAPLEY, SULLIVAN, DUBORD, JJ.
This is an action upon a writ of entry. The plaintiff received a verdict with a special finding establishing the disputed property line and an award of damages. The case is before us upon the stereotyped motion for a new trial.
There was substantial, credible evidence to support the verdict in all respects. A discussion of the evidence would be futile. The jury entertained and answered authoritatively a typical, jury question with finality. A careful examination of the record discloses no error of law or of fact in the verdict, which requires correction. McCully v. Bessey, 142 Me. 209, 212.
Motion denied.
