Paul N. Levy v. Schnabel Foundation

This is an appeal by Paul N. Levy, Gale R. Levy and Franklin Park Liquor, Inc. (the Levys) from an order of the trial court
setting aside a jury verdict in their favor in the amount of $400,000 and granting the motion of appellee Schnabel Foundation
Company (Schnabel) for judgment notwithstanding the verdict. The Levys contend that the evidence that Schnabel negligently
caused damage to their building was sufficient to support the jury's verdict. Although we view the case as a close one, and
the proof of the standard of care as rather unorthodox, we agree with the Levys, reverse the judgment n.o.v. in Schnabel's
favor, and remand for further proceedings. I
