Hanie v. Barnett

How courts have described this case

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

• trial court did not abuse its discretion in severing issue of professional negligence from issue of punitive damages to avoid possible prejudice
• “[a] trial court generally has broad authority in controlling the course of the trial”
• “In view of the great possibility that evidence concerning the other issues might taint the trial of the professional negligence case,” trial court did not abuse discretion in omitting evidence of prior conduct during liability phase of trial.
• plaintiffs were specifically allowed by the court to raise certain factual allegations on rebuttal or cross-examination after raising issue with court; because they failed to do so and failed to proffer allegedly excluded evidence, there was nothing for this Court to review
