Description
1. Gloria Unzen appeals a judgment, entered upon a jury verdict, dismissing her claim for the wrongful death of her husband, Richard Unzen. The jury found that Richards negligence was greater than that of any other driver. Unzen argues that Richard, as a matter of law, was not negligent and that the circuit court therefore erred by denying her motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict or, alternatively, a new trial. She contends that Overhead Door Companys negligence was the sole cause of Richards death. We conclude there is sufficient evidence to support the jurys apportionment of negligence and affirm the judgment and order. Further, because Unzen advances no argument against Lakehead Painting Company, we conclude Unzens appeal against Lakehead is frivolous and therefore Lakehead is entitled to appellate costs and attorney fees. We remand to the circuit court to determine the amount to be awarded.
