How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

unreliable verdict due to defect in interrogatories “though not objected to, results in a manifest miscarriage of justice and, as such, constitutes plain error”
where statements made by the decedent, as sole owner and president of the incorporated defendant, were admitted by the plaintiff throughout trial as non-hearsay, pursuant to Evid.R. 801(D)(2)
“[S]everal liability [is] triggered only upon a finding of negligence on the part of the plaintiff.... If a jury return[s] answers to interrogatories finding no negligence attributable to the plaintiff, then joint and several liability would lie.”
