The Court refused to disturb the trial judge's primary findings of fact and his discretionary apportionment of liability at 50% contributory negligence by the plaintiff; the Court affirmed most of the quantum assessment but adjusted specific heads (increasing past loss of earnings to reflect five months' sick leave, increasing loss of earning capacity award, and reinstating disputed medical expenses) while upholding the judge's exercise of discretion to limit interest because of the plaintiff's inordinate delay.
