Opinion:
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (George Cobb, J.), entered February 25, 1983, unanimously reversed, on the law and the facts, and a new trial ordered on the issue of damages only, without costs and without disbursements, unless plaintiff Rosemarie D'Amico, within 20 days after service upon her attorney of a copy of the order herein, with notice of entry, serves and files in the office of the clerk of the trial court a written stipulation consenting to reduce the verdict in her favor to $600,000 and to the entry of an amended judgment in accordance therewith. If plaintiff so stipulates, the judgment as so amended and reduced, is affirmed, without costs and without disbursements. After review of the record, the damages appear to be excessive to the extent indicated. Concur — Sullivan, J. P., Ross, Carro, Lynch and Kassal, JJ.
