Description
Bannock Paving Company (Bannock) appeals from a judgment entered after a jury trial in an action brought by Garrett Freightlines (Garrett), seeking contribution from Bannock and the State of Idaho for amounts paid in settlement of claims arising from a multi-vehicle accident at a road construction site on Interstate 84 near Mountain Home, Idaho. The jury returned a verdict apportioning fault to Bannock, 30%; to the state, 40%; and to Garrett Freightlines, 30%. Bannock appeals, contending that there is insufficient evidence to support the verdict or, in the alternative, that, as a public works contractor, it is immune to liability resulting from the accident at the road construction site. Garrett also appeals, contending that the trial court erred in denying Garretts request for an increase in the jurys verdict, and for prejudgment interest on the damages awarded by the jury. We reverse and remand for a new trial.
