CHARLES D. SUSANO, JR., J., dissenting.

       I cannot concur in the majority’s decision. The issue of whether the collision of
the vehicles “caused damage to the Plaintiffs” was fairly presented to the jury. The jury
rejected the Plaintiffs’ theory that Mr. Kempson was injured in the accident. I would
affirm the jury’s verdict in toto. Accordingly, I respectfully dissent from the majority’s
decision to remand for a new trial on damages.

                                                  _______________________________
                                                  CHARLES D. SUSANO, JR., JUDGE
