Sanders V. Point After Inc‪.‬

Appeal is taken from a jury verdict adverse to the appellant in a bifurcated personal  injury action against the Point After, Inc., discotheque and two of its employees. Appellant Ronald Edger Sanders (Sanders) cites five errors allegedly committed by the trial court that warrant reversal of the verdict: (1) whether the court erred in denying appellant's motion for continuance and setting the matter for trial on the sole question of liability, reserving the question of damages for a later trial; (2) whether the court erred in barring admission of two of appellant's depositions for failure to give reasonable notice; (3) whether it was error to deny admission of medical testimony pertaining to plaintiff's injuries where the only question before the court was defendants' liability; (4) whether there was sufficient evidence to support appellees' motion for directed verdict on appellant's claim for punitive damages; and (5) whether the court erred in its selection of the jury's verdict form.
