- argument that award of zero damages went to weight of the evidence and did not require a contemporaneous objection beforé the jury is discharged
- where uncontradicted medical evidence shows compensable injury, jury award of zero warranted new trial
- “[I]n order to preserve an issue for appellate review, a party must make a timely and specific objection at the appropriate stage of the proceedings before the trial court.”
- “On appeal, the Superior Court will not consider a claim which was not called to the trial court’s attention at a time when any error committed could have been corrected.”
