View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court did not err in denying claimant's motion for additur or new trial in a case where the jury awarded $100 to him for injuries he sustained in an auto accident, as the jury's award of damages was not so grossly out of proportion to the injuries suffered as to shock the court's conscience and sense of justice.
