Description
Plaintiff, a contract carrier by motor vehicle, brought an action of assumpsit against defendant for the cost of operation plus a reasonable profit guaranteed him under a written contract dated August 30, 1937, and recovered a verdict of $16,050.13. Defendant appealed from (the judgment on the verdict which was entered following) the lower courts refusal to enter a judgment n.o.v. or to grant a new trial. What is the proper construction of the contract; was the contract legal; was plaintiffs evidence sufficient to establish his case? -- These are the most important questions involved in this appeal. From 1200 pages of testimony we shall briefly summarize the important facts.
