Plaintiff David Audish appeals a civil judgment entered after the rendition of a jury verdict in an automobile collision case. The jury found Audish and defendant David Macias both operated their vehicles negligently and each party’s negligence was a substantial factor in causing harm to Audish. The jury found Audish suffered $65,699.50 in damages, including $29,288.94 for past medical expenses, $3,620 for past non-economic losses, and $32,790.56 for future medical expenses, and it assigned each party 50 percent of the responsibility for these losses.
