• failure to object to jury verdict assessing greater damages against principal than agent's conduct caused may be excused because error goes to ultimate merits of cause
• if defendants are jointly liable, damages should run against all, and, under law, jury was not permitted to apportion compensatory damages among defendants
• fundamental error for jury to return inconsistent verdict assessing more compensatory damages against the employer than against employee, when employer was only vicariously liable for act of employee
