Description
Plaintiffs A. A. Owen and his wife, Rubye, (Owen), owners of a restaurant building in Las Cruces, sued Burn Construction Company, Inc. (Burn) in damages for the negligent destruction of the building. The jury returned a verdict of $3500.00 in favor of Owen. Both parties filed motions for judgment notwithstanding the verdict and both motions were denied by the trial court. Both parties appealed to the Court of Appeals and that court reversed the trial court, directing that judgment be entered in favor of defendant notwithstanding the verdict. Owen petitioned for certiorari. We reverse the Court of Appeals and the trial court.
