Weidmer v. Stott

On Motion for Rehearing.

DUNKLIN, J.

Only four of the jurors testified at the hear"ing of the motion for new trial. They could not know to what extent the other eight ' jurors were influenced by the disdussion of attorneys’ fees. That fact furnishes a further 'reason for our conclusion that it cannot be said that it was shown beyond a reasonable doubt that the remittitur filed removed all taint from the verdict.

The motion for rehearing is overruled, also the motion to certify; it appearing that the Supreme Court has jurisdiction of an application for writ of error to the judgment here rendered. Great Atlantic & Pac. Tea Co. v. Willson (Tex. Sup.) 45 S.W.(2d) 554.
