Lawrence PRESTHUS, Appellee, v. WESTERN MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

June 8, 1965.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Linnan, Lynch & Straub, Algona, for appellant.

Winkel & Winkel, Algona, for appellee.


THOMPSON, Justice.

The sole question in this case arises from what the defendant thinks is an irreconcilable conflict between the general verdict of the jury and its answer to a special interrogatory. The general verdict was for the plaintiff, and the trial court refused to find such a conflict with the special verdict as to invalidate the general verdict. Judgment was entered on the general verdict, and the defendant appeals.
