Carraro v. Wells Fargo Mortgage & Equity

OPINION

GARCIA, Judge.

Plaintiff appeals from an adverse verdict rendered in a slip and fall case.

He raises three issues on appeal: 1) whether it was unfair to allow defendants twice as many peremptory challenges as plaintiff; 2) whether defendants had diverse interests; and 3) whether the trial court erred in allowing each defendant seven challenges and allowing all the challenges to be exercised as to the regular jurors. Defendant Wells Fargo Mortgage & Equity Trust (Wells Fargo) cross-appeals, claiming the trial court erred in not granting its costs for jury fees.

FACTS

This is a slip and fall…
