Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York November 3, 1980 (Sand v. Lykes Bros. Steamship Co.)

In a negligence action to recover damages for personal injuries, the parties cross-appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County, dated November 9, 1979, which granted defendant’s motion, pursuant to CPLR 4404, to set aside the jury’s verdict and directed a new trial unless plaintiff stipulate to accept a specified decreased damage award.
