Allen, 22 N.C. App. 442, 444-45, 206 S.E. 2d 750, 752-53 (1974).\nPlaintiff, relying on the above language, presented a rate expert who testified that according to tariffs filed with the ICC the total charges for services rendered were $1,373.99. Defendant offered no evidence. The trial court instructed the jury that, if they found $1,373.99 to be reasonable and consistent with the ICC\u2019s schedule of rates and tariffs, they must render a verdict for plaintiff in that amount. In light of our prior disposition of this case, we must find no error in the instruction.\nNo error.\nJudges Britt and Morris concur.",
