Fairview Villa v. City Montgomery

COLEMAN, Justice. The City of Montgomery constructed curb, gutter, and sewer improvements on Fairview Avenue and, as provided by statute, assessed costs against appellant as an abutting owner. Appellant appealed to the circuit court and judgment on the verdict of a jury was there rendered against appellant for $2,112.76. The amount of the verdict and the amount first assessed by the city are the same. From that judgment appellant prosecutes this appeal. Appellant argues that the court erred in overruling the grounds of the motion for new trial taking the point that the verdict and judgment are not sustained by the great preponderance of the evidence and are contrary to the law and facts in the case.
