Introduction
In this appeal, we determine which of Colorado's two prejudgment interest statutes controls the calculation of prejudgment interest awarded to an insured in an underinsured motorist ("UIM") ease brought against his insurer to recover benefits arising out of an underlying tort: the "personal injury statute,"1 * which governs prejudgment interest in cases where damages for personal injuries are sought, or the "wrongful withholding statute," 2 which governs prejudgment interest in cases where damages for wrongful withholding 3 are sought.4, 5
