`BACKGROUND:

`
`negligent
`
`in the happening
`
`of
`
`the accident

`
`after

`
`the

`
`unanimously
`

`
`the
`
`defendant's
`
`negligence
`
`was
`
`a substantial
`
`factor
`
`in
`
`causing
`
`the
`
`plaintiff
`
`to
`
`sustain
`

`

`
`the
`
`plaintiff
`
`did
`
`not
`
`sustain
`
`a permanent
`
`consequential
`
`injury
`
`as a result
`
`of
`
`the
`
`accident.
`
`The only monetary
`
`award
`
`made
`
`by the jury
`
`was
`
`for past
`
`pain
`
`and suffering
`
`in the amount
`
`of $120,000.
`
`The jury
`
`verdict
`

`

`
`POSTURE:
`
`The

`

`
`Alternatively,
`
`the
`
`plaintiff
`
`asks
`
`for
`
`a new
`
`trial
`
`on
`
`damages
`

`
`The

`

`
`the verdict
`

`
`the weight
`
`of
`

`

`
`The
`
`standard
`
`is clear
`
`and
`
`seemingly
`
`uncontested
`
`by the parties
`
`here,
`

`
`is very
`

`
`of
`
`the
`
`importance
`
`of not
`
`invading
`
`the province
`

`
`jury
`
`that
`
`has weighed
`
`the

`
`listened

`
`instructions,
`
`deliberated,
`
`and
`
`then
`
`reached
`
`a unanimous
`
`verdict
`
`on all questions.
`
`Clearly
`
`it
`
`is within
`
`the
`
`province
`
`of
`
`the jury
`
`to determine
`
`issues
`
`of
`
`credibility,
`
`and
`
`great
`
`deference
`
`should
`
`be given
`
`to the jury
`
`because
`
`it has
`
`the opportunity
`
`to see and
`
`hear
`
`the witnesses

`(see Sauter

`
`[2d Dept

`
`The
`
`jury
`
`in the
`
`present
`
`case
`
`saw and heard
`
`the testimony
`
`from the actors
`
`involved
`
`in the incident
`
`as well
`
`as experts
`
`who
`
`offered
`
`opinion
`

`
`The

`
`their
`
`respective
`
`credibility,
`
`and
`
`then
`
`unanimously
`
`the
`
`case.
`
`Great
`
`deference
`
`should
`
`be given
`
`to this
`
`process
`
`generally,
`
`and
`
`this Comt
`
`must
`
`afford
`
`such
`
`deference
`
`in this
`
`case because
`
`the evidence
`
`did
`
`so preponderate
`
`in
`
`to the jury
`
`not
`
`favor
`
`of
`
`the plaintiff
`
`that
`

`

`
`could

`

`
`on any
`
`fair
`

`
`the evidence

`
`of
`

`
`in dispute.
`
`The
`
`jury
`
`in this
`
`case
`
`heard
`
`extensive
`
`proof
`
`from
`
`both
`
`parties
`
`as to all
`
`issues
`
`Once
`
`deliberations
`
`began,
`
`the jury
`
`among
`
`other
`
`things
`
`asked
`
`the Court
`
`to read
`
`back
`
`the entire
`
`trial
`
`testimony
`
`of both
`
`the plaintiff
`
`as well
`
`as the
`
`defendant's
`
`examining
`
`physician,
`
`Dr.
`
`Landi.
`
`During
`
`deliberations
`
`the jury
`
`also
`
`asked
`
`to review
`
`the
`
`plaintiff's
`
`primary
`
`care
`
`records
`
`created
`
`in the days
`
`immediately
`
`after
`
`the
`
`accident
`
`-
`
`a key
`
`timeframe
`
`in this
`
`case
`
`because
`
`part
`
`of
`
`the
`
`defendant's
`
`argument
`
`that
`
`back
`
`that
`
`became
`
`the
`
`focus
`
`of
`
`against
`
`damages
`
`was
`
`the
`
`lower
`
`injury
`
`primary
`
`plaintiff's
`

`
`was
`
`not
`
`a body
`
`part
`
`she complained
`
`of
`
`immediately
`
`after
`
`the accident.
`
`The jury
`
`deliberations
`
`lasted
`
`over
`
`the
`
`course
`
`of
`
`two
`
`days,
`
`and
`
`the
`
`verdict
`
`was
`
`ultimately
`
`unanimous.
`
`As
`
`stated
`
`earlier,
`
`it
`
`is within
`
`the province
`
`of
`
`the jury
`
`to determine
`
`issues
`
`of credibility,
`
`and great
`
`deference
`
`should
`
`be given
`
`to the jury
`
`because
`
`it has
`
`the opportunity
`
`to see and
`
`hear
`
`the
`
`witnesses
