Description

Appellant, University National Bank ("Bank"), sued Ernst & Whinney ("E & W") to recover damages sustained by Bank as a result of E & Ws alleged breach of express or implied contract and negligence in performing professional accounting services for Bank in 1983 and 1984. In its answer, E & W denied Banks allegations and alleged that Bank negligently caused its own damages by entering into management of and supervision of certain loans. The trial court granted E & Ws motion for instructed verdict on Banks breach of contract claims and submitted the case to the jury solely on negligence issues. The jury found that both parties were negligent, Banks damages were $404,006.00 and Banks negligence and proximate causation were 59%, with the remaining 41% assigned to E & W under a comparative negligence submission.
