Description
The trial court entered judgment for damages in the amount of $25,000 in favor of Beverly Stanhope (Stanhope) against defendants Brown County and Continental Casualty Insurance Company (Continental), Brown Countys liability insurer, for injuries Stanhope suffered when an automobile in which she was a passenger went out of control on a Brown County highway. Stanhope appeals from that portion of the judgment limiting to $25,000 the damages she may recover from Brown County and Continental. Brown County and Continental cross-appeal from that portion of the judgment awarding any damages to Stanhope and from the trial courts order denying motions after verdict. We modify the trial courts judgment to award Stanhope damages against Brown County and Continental in excess of $25,000 up to Continentals policy limits and affirm the judgment as modified. We further affirm the orders from which Brown County and Continental cross-appeal.
