Judge Wheeler Denies Bid to Set Aside $5,000 Verdict
Judge George W. Wheeler denies the New Haven Company motion to set aside a $5,000 jury verdict in Morse v Eliott. He criticizes frequent non-suits and similar motions as unfounded, noting the Crossing at East Litchfield is exceptionally dangerous and requires greater care by the railroad. The decision affirms the jury finding of negligence as a proximate cause and preserves the verdict.
