01/29/96 Joseph Carl Owens V. Truckstops America

This interlocutory appeal presents for determination the principles of comparative fault applicable to the assessment of liability among joint tortfeasors and the application of those principles to this transitional case, in which the cause of action accrued prior to the decision in McIntyre v. Balentine, 833 S.W.2d 52 (Tenn. 1992). The decision of the Court of Appeals is modified and the case is remanded to the trial court.
