Kaplan v. Wein

Freedman, P. J.

This was -an action for an alleged conversion of personal property. - There was a conflict of evidence upon the trial as to whether the goods claimed by the plaintiff to have been converted by defendant were returned ■ or -not, and the' trial "judge gave judgment for the plaintiff. The testimony on thé part of the plaintiff shows that the defendant was a traveling salesman in the employ of the’ plaintiff, that the plaintiff had delivered to the defendant a quantity of wrappers and dressing sacques, to be used in obtaining orders for their sales,- that these were the property- of t-lie plaintiff, and when the employment of the defendant .was ended, were to be returned to the plaintiff, that the employment of the ■defendant ceased in September, 1898, and that although requested -several times to return the samples, he had not done so. The value of the goods, was shown without objection to be $41.05; for which amount the plaintiff had a judgment. Several objections- were made to the introduction of testimony,, and exceptions were taken to the rulings of the trial judge, but a careful examination of the evidence does not show that the testimony objected to was improper, nor was it of such a character as to prejudice the defendant. Upon the whole case it does not appear that injustice has been done. The judgment should be affirmed.

MacLeae and Leveetbitt, JJ., concur.
