779 So. 2d 288 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1998)

Opinion

No. 97-02184

October 2, 1998

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Lee County; R. Wallace Pack, Judge.

Bonita Kneeland Brown of Fowler, White, Gillen, Boggs, Villareal Banker, P.A., Tampa, for appellant.

Michael C. Tice, Fort Myers, for appellees.


The appellant, defendant in a personal injury action arising from an automobile accident, challenges a final judgement for damages and an order denying his motion for new trial.

We affirm the final judgement in all respects except one. In the second issue, the appellant claims the award for property damage was based on inaccurate testimony and was therefore erroneous. The appellee concedes the issue. The jury verdict was clearly expressive by the amount of $462.50.

We therefore remand for remittitur in that amount. In all other respects, the final judgement is affirmed.

Affirmed, remanded for remittitur.

PARKER, C.J., and BLUE, J., concur.
