Before BARKDULL, C.J., and PEARSON and HENDRY, JJ.


PEARSON, Judge.

The appellees, Hanratty, brought suit on a group insurance policy which provided hospital benefits. After a jury trial, a verdict was returned for the defendant-appellant, Peninsular Life Insurance Company. The trial judge entered a judgment for the appellees notwithstanding the verdict and in the alternative an order granting a new trial. We reverse the judgment notwithstanding the verdict, but affirm the order granting a new trial.
