Description

1 Heritage Mutual Insurance Company appeals a circuit court judgment, arguing the court erred when it: (1) failed to use the language of an insurance policy in a special verdict, preventing the jury from properly deciding insurance coverage; (2) excluded evidence of practice, routine or habit; and (3) denied a request for a new trial due to the cumulative effect of the alleged errors. Heritage also argues the jurys award for future loss of earning capacity was excessive. We affirm the judgment and hold respectively: (1) the language used in the special verdict was appropriate; (2) the court properly excluded improper character evidence; and (3) no errors were present that required a curative instruction or a new trial. We further hold that the jurys award was supported by credible evidence and was not excessive.
