Appellate Court of Connecticut

651 A.2d 758 (Conn. App. Ct. 1995)

Opinion

(12856)

Argued December 6, 1994

Decision released January 17, 1995

Action to recover damages for personal injuries sustained by the plaintiff as a result of the defendant's alleged negligence, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district of Hartford-New Britain at New Britain and tried to the jury before Jackaway, J.; directed verdict for the defendant; thereafter, the court denied the plaintiff's motion to set aside the verdict and rendered judgment in accordance with the verdict, and the plaintiff appealed to this court. Affirmed.

Alexander Scheirer, for the appellant (plaintiff).

Duncan J. Forsyth, with whom was Julie F. Grey, for the appellee (defendant).


This is an appeal from the judgment rendered following the granting of the defendant's motion for a directed verdict in a slip and fall case. An examination of the transcript and the record shows that there was no evidence as to the proximate cause of the plaintiff's fall. See Flemington v. Garnett, 231 Conn. 77, 86, 646 A.2d 1308 (1994); Doe v. Manheimer, 212 Conn. 748, 757-59, 563 A.2d 699 (1989); Wu v. Fairfield, 204 Conn. 435, 438, 528 A.2d 364 (1987). All other issues are moot.
