Description

The first of these two cases is brought by Geraldine Pease against David Shapiro, for alleged negligence on the part of the defendant in ""creating a condition"" or by suffering ""a condition to exist"" whereby snow and ice fell from the defendant's building, and injured the plaintiff Geraldine Pease, then upon the sidewalk. The second case is brought by the husband of Geraldine Pease for medical expenses incurred by him resulting from the alleged injuries, and also for loss of his wife's services and companionship. No claim is made, and no evidence appears to show that the defendant had any personal knowledge of the accident or of snow conditions before. The plea was the general issue in both cases. The actions were tried together before a jury in the Androscoggin Superior Court. The amount of the verdict for Geraldine Pease was found by the jury to be $2,000 and for Edward Pease $500. The cases are before the Law Court on exceptions by defendant to the order of the presiding justice for the jury to return a verdict for the plaintiff in each case; on exceptions by defendant to refusal of presiding justice to direct a verdict for defendant; on exceptions by defendant because, on defendant's motion for new trial to the presiding justice, the justice did not consider the merits of the motion, but ruled ""in order that the cases might go promptly to the Law Court."" The defendant also filed general motions for new trials.
