Perigo v. Deegan

HOFFMAN, Judge:

Appellant contends that the lower court erred in: (1) failing to find appellee Carmen A. Perigo contributorily negligent as a matter of law; (2) instructing the jury on the theory of wanton or reckless misconduct; (3) denying appellant’s two points for charge on the issue of contributory negligence; and (4) failing to specifically instruct the jury that Carmen A. Perigo’s medical bills and lost wages could not be considered in awarding damages. We disagree with these contentions and, accordingly, affirm the judgment of the lower court.
