Curley v. Wilcox

Syllabus

The trial court did not err in refusing to dismiss prospective jurors for cause solely on the basis that they were policyholders of appellee's liability insurance company, which paid for appellee's expert. The jury verdict in favor of appellant was against the manifest weight of the evidence because there was no evidence submitted at trial on which the jury could reasonably have calculated an amount of damages that was not inherently speculative. Judgment affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded for a new trial on damages.
