District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

November 13, 1998.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Eric H. Faddis of Faddis, Oldham & Smith, P.A., Orlando, and Terrence E. Kehoe of Law Offices of Terrence E. Kehoe, Orlando, for Appellant.

Sharon Lee Stedman of Sharon Lee Stedman, P.A., Orlando, and Jane Clark of Kane, Williams, Singer & Planck, Orlando, for Appellee State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance.


PETERSON, Judge.

Winifred Kelly appeals the denial of her motion for a new trial arguing that the trial court incorrectly excluded certain of her medical records and limited her cross-examination of an expert witness. She also argues that she is entitled to a new trial because of erroneous and prejudicial comments made by State Farm Mutual Auto Insurance (State Farm) during closing argument. We agree as to the evidentiary issues and remand for a new trial.
