FOWLER-PROPST v. DATTILO

No. 12140.

807 P.2d 757 (1991)

111 N.M. 573

Jennifer FOWLER-PROPST and David Propst, Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. Joa DATTILO, Defendant-Appellee.

Court of Appeals of New Mexico.

Certiorari Denied March 27, 1991.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ellen S. Casey, Hinkle, Cox, Eaton, Coffield & Hensley, Santa Fe, for plaintiffs-appellants.

Winston Roberts-Hohl, Santa Fe, for defendant-appellee.


OPINION

HARTZ, Judge.

The district court ruled that newly discovered evidence required setting aside a judgment in favor of plaintiffs. Plaintiffs contend that the district court erred because the new evidence concerned an event that did not occur until after trial. We reverse. A new trial should not be granted solely on the ground that a post-trial event undercuts a prediction which formed the basis for the assessment of damages.
