Head Matter:
CITY OF DETROIT v. JULIEN.
Circuit Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
October 15, 1927.
No. 4964.
Hazen J. Payette, of Detroit, Mich. (Chas P. O’Neil, James S. Shields, and Peter J. Drexelius, all of Detroit, Mich., on the brief), for plaintiff in error.
Bresnahan & Groefsema, of Detroit, Mich., for defendant in error.
Before DENISON and MOORMAN, Circuit Judges, and RAYMOND, District Judge.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Affirmed. Defendant's motion to direct, made, at the close of plaintiff's evidence, was waived by putting in proof without renewal of the motion; and, in any event, there was substantial evidence to support the verdict. The doctors' evidence was, in substance, an expression of expert opinion as to the probability of permanence in the injury. A deduction of an unknown amount on account of pain and suffering must be made from the verdict; and hence no one can say that so much as was compensation for lack of earning power was excessive.
Let the mandate issue forthwith.
