Alvin Glay, trustee for the next of kin of Unity McGill v. R.C. of St. Cloud, Inc.

Syllabus

Appellant challenges the district court's denial of his motion for a new trial in a wrongful-death lawsuit after the jury found that respondent's negligence was not a direct cause of decedent's death. Appellant argues that the district court erred by (1) allowing the jury to compare the fault between intentional and negligent tortfeasors, (2) instructing the jury to consider superseding cause, and (3) denying appellant's motion for a new trial on damages. We reverse and remand.
