VAN der VOORT, Judge:

This case is in trespass. Plaintiff asks for damages for injuries he received in the collapse of a platform and steps outside the door of his sister's home. In a first trial the jury found for defendant, and the lower court en banc granted plaintiff's motion for new trial. In a second trial, a second jury found for the defendant. The court en banc again granted a new trial. Defendant has appealed to our court.

We reverse the lower court...
