Description
This case is before the court on a petition and cross-petition for review of an unpublished decision of the court of appeals, dated December 13, 1989, which affirmed in part and reversed in part a judgment of the circuit court for Milwaukee County, Rudolph T. Randa, Circuit Judge. The circuit court entered judgment pursuant to a jury verdict against Dale L. Chartier (Chartier) and State Farm Fire & Casualty Company (State Farm) in the amount of $75,284.74. The jury awarded Cheryl Loveridge (Loveridge) $67,500.00 in compensatory damages and $20,000.00 in punitive damages. The compensatory damage award was reduced under sec. 895.045, Stats., because the jury found Chartier 75 percent causally negligent, Youthful Shoes, Inc. (a defendant that settled before trial) 5 percent causally negligent, and Loveridge 20 percent contributorily negligent. The court of appeals reversed the award of punitive damages, but affirmed the judgment of the circuit court in all other respects.
