Garrido v. Romeo CA2/3
Defendant Regina Romeo appeals from an order granting a new trial in a personal injury action brought by Plaintiff Norman Espino Garrido. After Defendant rejected a proposed additur, the trial court entered an order granting Plaintiff’s motion for new trial “on the issue of non-economic damages,” without specifying the reasons for its decision. Defendant contends the order fails to satisfy the jurisdictional requirements set forth in Code of Civil Procedure section 657 for granting a new trial on the ground of inadequate damages. We agree and reverse.
