H; Fourth Circuit Court of Appeal, Nos. 90CW-0504; 90CW-0510 and 90CW-0543.
Granted. Although the trial court erred in discharging the jury, judicial economy and CCP article 2164 dictate that we order the trial court to proceed with a new jury to complete the damages portion of the case; otherwise the writ is denied.
