Lachase v. Sanders

In this action the plaintiff sought
$30,000 damages for personal injuries alleged to
have been caused by the defendant in the negligent
[142 Conn. 123]
operation of a motor vehicle. The case was tried
to the jury, who returned a verdict for $2000 in
favor of the plaintiff. He moved to set it aside
on the ground that it was against the evidence and
the law. The court refused to set it aside, and
the plaintiff has appealed. His basic claim is
that the amount of the verdict was inadequate by
reason of improper remarks made by the trial judge
to the jury. The assignments of error concern only
the above.
