How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that where concession is made to some injury but the “extent and duration of the injury” is contested, the proper course is to grant a new trial “limited to damages resulting from the uncontroverted injury”
- finding that the jury could not “disregard the uncontr[o]verted evidence of causation and find [defendant’s] negligence was not a substantial factor in causing at least some injury to [plaintiff]” when all experts agreed plaintiff suffered some injury
- limited new trial to certain types of damages so plaintiff would not get a “second bite at the apple”
- jury found that defendant was negligent, defendant conceded that he caused the accident, and defendant’s medical expert conceded that plaintiff suffered some injury in the accident
