Description
Plaintiff-appellee Erik Conte successfully sued defendant General Housewares Corp. ("GHC") and defendant-appellant Dayton Power and Light Co. ("DP&L") in connection with severe personal injuries that he received as a result of a large electrical shock and obtained a verdict of $3.5 million. DP&L now appeals several of the district court's rulings with respect to that verdict and with respect to the award of prejudgment interest against DP&L. Because there was no error in the district court's decisions to award prejudgment interest against DP&L and to deny DP&L's motions for judgment as a matter of law, a new trial, and relief from the award of prejudgment interest, we AFFIRM those rulings of the district court, and we REMAND for recalculation of DP&L's liability in light of the partial satisfaction of the judgment by GHC and the accrued postjudgment interest.
