Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Fifth Circuit.

July 30, 1984.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edmond J. Harris, New Orleans, for plaintiff-appellant.

Robert M. Johnston, New Orleans, for defendant-appellee.

Before BOWES, GRISBAUM and DUFRESNE, JJ.


DUFRESNE, Judge.

This is an appeal by Many Heymann, plaintiff-appellant, wherein he seeks an increase of a jury award of $12,000 in his favor and against Allstate Insurance Co., Inc., defendant-appellee, for damages sustained in an automobile-motorcycle accident. Because we find that the trier of fact abused its much discretion in fixing this award, the judgment is increased to $30,000.
