Based on the evidence and applicable law in this case and the Defendant's admission of liability, I hereby direct you to return a verdict finding Joyce M.

In order for the Plaintiff to recover in this case, the Defendant's negligent conduct must have been a substantial factor in bringing about the 11 ~ ~l ~his is what the law recognizes as legal cause. A substantial factor is an actual, real factor, although the result may be unusual or unexpected, but is not an imaginary or fanciful factor or a factor having no connection or only an insignificant connection with the accident. Pa. SSJI (Civ) 3.25; Whitnerv. Loieski, 437 Pa. 448, 263 A.2d 889 (1970). 245256.1 IRASIMLB I II ""'""'~'0 ;) .~J, ,", 3.

In civil cases such as this one, the Plaintiff has the burden of proving those contentions which entitle her to relief. When a party has the burden of proof on a particular issue, his contention on that issue must be established by a fair preponderance of the evidence. The evidence establishes a contention by a fair preponderance of the evidence if you are persuaded that it is more probably accurate and true than not. To put it another way, think, if you will, of an ordinary balance scale, with a pan on each side, Onto one side of the scale, place all of the evidence favorable to the Plaintiff; onto the other, place all of the evidence favorable to the Defendant. If, after considering the comparable weight of the evidence, you feel that the scales tip, ever so slightly or to the slightest degree, in favor of the Plaintiff, your verdict must be for the Plaintiff. If the scales tip in favor of the Defendant, or are equally balanced, your verdict must be for the Defendant. In this case, the Plaintiff has the burden of proving the following propositions: that the Defendant was negligent, and that that negligence was a substantial factor in bringing about the accident. If, after considering all of the evidence, you feel persuaded that these propositions are more probably true than not true, your verdict must be for the Plaintiff. Otherwise, your verdict should be for the Defendant. ie' 2 A.2d 251 (1963); Reist v. Manwiller, 245256.11RASIMLB 5. You will recall that Lee S. Segal, M.D. gave testimony of his qualifications as an expert in the field of orthopedics. A witness who has special knowledge, skill, experience, training or education in a particular science, profession or occupation may give his opinion as an expert as to any matter in which he/she is skilled. In determining the weight to be given to his opinion, you should consider the qualifications and reliability of the expert and the reasons given for his opinion. You are not bound by an expert's opinion merely because he is an expert; you may accept or reject it, as in the case of other witnesses, Give it the weight, if any, to which you deem it entitled. Pa.

It is a factor, but only one of many factors which you should consider. Whether the witnesses appear to be biased or unbiased; whether they are interested or disinterested persons, are among the important factors which go to the reliability of their testimony. The important thing is the quality of the testimony of each witness. In short, the test is not which side brings the greater number of witnesses or presents the greater quantity of evidence; but which witness or witnesses, and which evidence, you consider most worthy of belief. Even the testimony of one witness may out weigh that of many, if you have reason to believe his testimony in preference to theirs. Obviously, however, where the testimony of the witnesses appear to you to be of the same quality, the weight of numbers assumes particular significance. Pa.

It is for the jury to determine how seriously the Plaintiff has been injured and what allowance, if any, should be made to her for pain and suffering, past, present and/or future. Even uncontradicted evidence of pain and suffering need not be accepted by the jury. Kirbv v. Carlisle, 178 Pa.Super. 389 (1955); Reao v.

Damages may not exceed compensation for compensable loss and damages should be awarded with the least burden to the wrongdoer consistent with the idea of fair compensation to the injured party. Incollinao v. Ewina, 444 Pa. 299, 282 A.2d 206 (1971). 7. The purpose of awarding monetary damages is not to punish a Defendant or to reward a Plaintiff, but rather the purpose is to fairly compensate the Plaintiff for any :~ damages which you may find she has sustained. :( " 8. There is no legal yardstick that can be used to measure accurately what would be reasonable compensation for pain and suffering. Damages for pain and suffering should not be awarded on the basis of sympathy, benevolence or sentimentality, but should be limited to reasonable compensation for the injury sustained. Bostwick v. Pittsburah Railwav, 225 Pa. 397 (1917); Buraan v. Pittsburah, 373 Pa. 608, 96 A.2d 889 (1953). 9.

It is the province of the jury to appraise the testimony and to either accept or reject the evidence given by a witness. A jury need not believe the testimony of a plaintiff and her witnesses concerning injuries; otherwise, there would be no way for a defendant to protect herself against fraudulent claims for injuries which never occurred. Gottlob v. Hilleaas, 195 Pa.Super.Ct. 453 (1961). 15. The jury is not bound to accept Plaintiffs testimony nor is it bound by the opinions of her medical witnesses or their version of the circumstances. Gaita v.

FULTZ, Plaintiff # 14 OLER IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA v. CIVIL ACTION - LAW JOYCE M. TIMMONS, Defendant No. 01-2979 CIVIL TERM IN RE: PRETRIAL CONFERENCE A pretrial conference was held in the chambers of Judge Oler in the above-captioned case on Wednesday, April 10, 2002. Present on behalf of Plaintiff was Richard A. Sadlock, Esquire. Present on behalf of Defendant was C. Kent Price, Esquire. This is a negligence action for personal injuries allegedly sustained by Plaintiff arising out of a two-vehicle accident on the Carlisle Pike on January 23, 2000, at 7:02 p.m., which occurred when Defendant, entering the Pike from Lambs Gap Road, failed to yield to a vehicle passing by on the pike in which Plaintiff was a passenger and struck it on the passenger's side. Liability on the part of Defendant for causing the accident is admitted, leaving factual issues for the jury to resolve of causation and damages. This will be a jury trial in which each side will have four peremptory challenges, for a total of eight. The estimated duration of trial is two days. Plaintiff's counsel will be unavailable for trial on April 29 and April """"",,w ~ I,~t -,"'-' _ '. ' '-~ -.'J 1.1_ ,'<"",("" " "''''''!i: \ 30, 2002, but indicated that he might be able to obtain subs~itute counsel, for purposes of jury selection only, on Mond~y, April 29, 2002. No unusual issues are expected to arise during the case. This appears to be a non-economic damages case only, because economic damages have been paid by sources as to which evidence is not admissible at the trial. To the extent that deposition testimony will be shown or read to the jury and contains objections requiring rulings by the trial court, counsel are directed to furnish to the Court at least three days prior to commencement of the trial term a copy of the transcript(s) containing objections which require such rulings with the areas of objection being pursued by counsel highlighted and with brief memoranda in support of counsels' respective positions on the objections. With respect to settlement negotiations, Plaintiff has demanded $37,500.00, and Defendant has offered $8000.00. It is difficult to predict whether this case will be resolved short of trial.
