Description

In this negligence action to recover damages stemming from the death of decedent, a 12-year-old boy, plaintiff was awarded $50,000 for wrongful death and $25,000 for conscious pain and suffering, the latter amount having been reduced to $15,000 upon stipulation. On this appeal, defendant maintains that, as a matter of law, the jury was required to be instructed that plaintiff was limited to recovering nominal damages on the wrongful death cause of action. The amount of the wrongful death award is not otherwise questioned by defendant.
