Head Matter:
Jacob J. KORNMAN et ux. v. Ben RICHARDS, d/b/a Richards Building Service.
No. 45039.
Supreme Court of Mississippi.
Nov. 4, 1968.
Robert M. Acevedo, Biloxi, for appellants.
Louis Hengen, Biloxi, for appellee.

Opinion:
BRADY, Justice.
A thorough and careful reading of the pleadings and record in this case along with a study of the briefs of counsel and the authorities cited by both appellant and appellee convinces us that the astute circuit court judge was correct in affirming the directed verdict granted the appellee-plaintiff in the county court because as stated below the appellants-defendants were given "credit for everything, under the pleadings and evidence, the jury could have justly and legally allowed" there being no cross-appeal by the appellee.
Affirmed.
ETHRIDGE, C. J., and JONES, INZER and ROBERTSON, JJ., concur.
