PER CURIAM.


This appeal was heard upon the record, briefs, and argument of counsel;

And it appearing that appellant's complaint that the verdict and judgment in favor of appellee in the amount of $27,500.00 for personal injuries, property damage and medical expenses arising out of a collision between appellant's automobile and appellee's tractor-trailer, is excessive, was considered and rejected by the trial judge in overruling appellant's motion for a new trial;

And such ruling by the trial judge being reviewable only for abuse of discretion, and no such abuse being shown. Detroit Taxicab & Transfer Co. v. Pratt, 6 Cir., 2 F.2d 193; Spero-Nelson v. Brown, 6 Cir., 175 F.2d 86, 89; Scott v. Baltimore & Ohio R. Co., 3 Cir., 151 F.2d 61, 64-65.

It is ordered that the judgment of the District Court be affirmed.
