Five issues are presented on this appeal:

1. Is there credible evidence to support the jury's finding as to causal negligence of Hamlin?

2. Were Bach and Rickert engaged in a joint enterprise as a matter of law?

3. Were the damages awarded to Bach for personal injuries excessive?

4. Was the award for loss of earnings up to the time of trial excessive?
