Westerman v. Shogren

CYNTHIA L. MARTIN, Judge.

Barbara Shogren (“Defendant”) appeals from the trial court’s judgment awarding $200,000 to Cheryl Westerman (“Plaintiff’). Defendant claims that the trial court erred in: (1) denying her motion for a new trial on the basis that the jury’s verdict awarded damages for a future, speculative surgery; (2) allowing an expert witness to testify about his personal neck condition; and (3) issuing a protective order that limited the scope of discovery about Plaintiffs medical issues. We affirm.
