District Court of Appeal of Florida August 24, 2005, No. 4D04-4580 (Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. v. Bufalo)

PER CURIAM.

As the appellee concedes, the lower court erred when it granted a new trial on damages alone, in this slip-and-fall case, without first granting a motion for additur. See Waxman v. Truman, 792 So.2d 657 (Fla. 4th DCA 2001); § 768.74, Fla. Stat. (2004). Before a new trial on damages can be awarded, section 768.
