— In a negligence action to recover damages for personal injuries, the defendants appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County, entered June 27, 1980, in favor of plaintiff against the defendants in the principal amount of $40,000, after a jury trial on the issue of damages only, the defendants having previously stipulated to liability.
