Opinion

PER CURIAM.

WRIT GRANTED.

We have thoroughly reviewed the record. The trial judge’s reasons deal only with liability and do not discuss quantum. The Court of Appeal erred in assuming that the trial judge reduced the damages due to plaintiffs by the proportion of fault assessed to the cab driver.

The judgment of the Court of Appeal which amended the quantum award is reversed, and the trial court's judgment is reinstated, as it is not manifestly erroneous.
