Text: The Brooks contend that the trial court erred in refusing to give Plaintiff's Tendered Instruction No. 5, which states that if, in fact, the jury found Doctors Ross and Allen to be negligent in ordering the IVP, then Doctors Ross and Allen would be liable for all foreseeable damages. In view of the fact that the damages issue in the instruction was conditioned upon a finding that Doctors Ross and Allen were negligent, and in view of our holding that the jury's verdict in favor of Doctors Ross and Allen was not contrary to law, we need not consider the merits of Plaintiff's Tendered Instruction No. 5, because any error which may have been committed would have been rendered harmless. See Adkins v. Poparad (1943), 222 Ind. 16, 51 N.E.2d 476, and Kosanovic v. Ivey (1968), 142 Ind. App. 481, 235 N.E.2d 501.
