General Casualty Co. of Wisconsin v. Hills
Wisconsin Supreme Court
1Concurrence
SHIRLEY S. ABRAHAMSON, CHIEF JUSTICE
¶ 26. (concurring). I agree with the result reached by the majority opinion. I write separately to point out that I believe the majority opinion marks a significant *186step towards overruling Shorewood,1 upon which Edg-erton2 relied in its dictum defining damages.
¶ 27. Rather than leaving Shorewood and Edger-ton to be overturned in small measures by debatable judicial distinctions, I would embrace the inevitable now by expressly overruling Shorewood and thereby recognizing the limited application of the Edgerton decision on damages.
