District Court of Appeal of Florida June 28, 2000, Nos. 4D98-3636, 4D98-4059 and 4D99-0071 (Centex-Rodgers Construction Co. v. Herrera)

FARMER, J.

A jury awarded plaintiff over $750,000 in damages in a negligence case. We affirm the trial court’s order letting the verdict against defendants stand. The trial judge also reduced the award, however, by a setoff under section 768.76(1) for sums paid under an insurance policy. We reverse the setoff.

Section 768.
