Inconsistent Interrogatory Answers Do Not Support A Judgment.

No judgment can be entered based upon inconsistent interrogatory answers (by the jury) and a general verdict.  The only remedy is for the trial judge to instruct the jury to keep deliberating or order a new trial (CPLR 4111 (c)).  Applebee vs County of Cayuga, 1388, CA 11-02090 Fourth Dept. 2-8-13
