Syllabus

<p>Practice, Supreme Court — Appeals—Assignments of error — Motion for judgment n. o. v. — Withdrawal of motion — New trial — Verdict excessive.</p> <p>1. The withdrawal of an assignment of error to the refusal of a motion for judgment n. o. v. is an admission that the case is for the jury.</p> <p>2. The appellate court will not reverse a judgment on a verdict because the trial court refused a new trial, where no error is assigned to the admission or rejection of testimony, or to the charge of the court, and the only reasons assigned for a new trial in the court below were that the verdict was against the law, the evidence, the weight of the evidence, the charge of the court, and was excessive.</p>
