On Rehearing
In brief on application for rehearing counsel states:
“This Honorable Court inadvertently failed to state, in its opinion, as to whether or not the Court considered said verdict contrary to the great weight of the evidence, which will preclude appellant from raising this point on a petition for writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court in the event this application for rehearing is overruled. It is respectfully requested and urged that this Honorable Court pass on the question as to whether or not the trial court erred in overruling appellant’s motion for a new trial as to the appellee, DeLuxe Cab Company, Inc., on this ground.”
It will be noted that we did hold that we would not be authorized to predicate error on the action of the trial court in overruling the motion for a new trial as against the DeLuxe Cab Company. Our reference here related to the ground in the motion that the verdict was contrary to the evidence. This was the only ground upon which insistence was made in brief of counsel.
To respond to the other insistences in support of the motion for a rehearing would in effect be a reiteration of our views expressed in the original opinion.
Application for rehearing is ordered overruled.
