Opinion

SONENSHINE, J. *

A notary public, Chelle Wells, her employer, McCoy Motor Company doing business as Mills Ford, and her bond surety, Western Surety Co. (collectively Wells unless otherwise indicated), appeal from a judgment entered in favor of Lourey A. McComber in her negligence action. Wells maintains the trial court erroneously failed to offset the jury’s damages award and should have precluded Lourey from recovering noneconomic damages. Lourey also challenges several of the trial court’s rulings. We modify the economic and noneconomic damage awards, but otherwise affirm the judgment.
