Description

This Mississippi diversity case was tried to a jury on a suit involving two causes of action: (1) breach of warranties, express and implied, and (2) tortious interference with plaintiffs employment contract, arising from the purchase by plaintiff-appellant George A. MacKenzie of a 1976 Dodge Aspen station wagon from Jones Motor Company of Amory, Mississippi. Defendant-appellee is Chrysler Corporation, manufacturer of the automobile in question. At the close of plaintiffs evidence, defendant moved for a directed verdict which was denied as to defendants motion regarding breach of warranties, but granted on the issue of defendants alleged tortious interference with MacKenzies employment contract. The case was finally submitted to the jury on the issues of breach of Chryslers express warranty and the implied warranty of merchantability arising from the sale of the automobile.

MacKenzie has appealed, assigning several errors during the trial of the case. After a careful review of the proceedings below, we affirm.
