Before: GONZALES, KUHN, and WEIMER, JJ.

KUHN, J.

This appeal arises out of a personal injury suit involving an automobile accident. We consider whether the trial court erred in assessing liability, whether an award of general damages was an abuse of discretion, and whether a stipulation addressing the maximum amount of recovery for individual petitioners was properly interpreted by the trial court. We amend the trial court's judgment and, as amended, we affirm the judgment.
