Judge Walker
concurring in the result.
I am not convinced the trial court committed error as set out in the majority opinion. See Caudle v. Swanson, 248 N.C. 249, 103 S.E.2d *103357 (1958) (additur) and Hanna v. Brady, 73 N.C. App. 521, 327 S.E.2d 22 (1985) (remittitur) for practices approved by our courts; therefore, I believe it is acceptable for the trial court to order an addi-tur or remittitur and then deny a new trial motion.
