Supreme Judicial Court of Maine December 23, 1952 (Rowell v. Jaris)

Williamson, J.

The defendant’s motion for a new trial is overruled. The case is an action of tort for deceit in the sale of defendant’s home to the plaintiffs. The defendant argues: (1) that his statements with respect to the water supply were statements of opinion and not of fact; and (2) that the damages were excessive.

It will serve no useful purpose to review the evidence.
