Opinion

William Fallon, Appellant, v. The Brooklyn City, Hunter’s Point and Prospect Park Railroad Company, Respondent. (Argued April 6, 1874; decided April 14, 1874.) An order of General Term affirming an order of the court at circuit granting a motion, made on the judge’s minutes, to set aside a verdict as against evidence, is not appealable to this court. This was an appeal from an order of General Term, affirming an order of the court at circuit granting a motion, made on the minutes of the judge, to set aside a verdict. The motion was granted, as appears by the order, on the ground that the verdict was against evidence. Held, as above. E. G. Sanderson for the appellant. John H. Bergen for the respondent. [MAJORITY — Per Curiam] Per Curiam opinion for dismissal of appeal. All concur. Appeal dismissed.
