The High Court found there was no error in the trial judge’s factual findings or exercise of discretion. The trial judge properly evaluated and preferred the plaintiff’s expert evidence where justified, the awards (muscle wasting RM5,000; ACL injury RM20,000; future pain/suffering RM10,000; future surgical costs RM12,000 and RM10,000; orthotic costs RM291,000) were reasonable and supported by the evidence, and the appellant failed to demonstrate specific overlapping injuries warranting a deduction; accordingly the appeal on quantum is dismissed.
