Description
Reporter of Decisions Argued: November 17, 2004 [¶1] Gregory Coyne appeals from a judgment by the Superior Court (Cumberland County, Warren, J.), following a jury verdict finding that Greg Peace was not liable for injuries to Coyne. Coyne asserts that the court erred in (1) instructing the jury on the emergency doctrine; (2) allowing evidence and comment that Peace was surprised when originally served with the action nearly six years after the event; and (3) permitting defense counsel, in his closing argument, to address the jury using the term ""you"" and to refer to the complaint being filed three days before expiration of the statute of limitations. Finding no error of law or unsustainable exercise of discretion in the trial court's management of the proceedings, we affirm. I. CASE HISTORY
