Description
Janie and David Shelton sued their insurer, USAA Casualty Insurance Company, seeking underinsured motorists (UM) benefits under their automobile policy. The jury returned a verdict in favor of the Sheltons and the trial court entered judgment against USAA in the amount of $50,000, the policy limits. After unsuccessfully moving for remittitur or a new trial, USAA has appealed the judgment. It contends that the trial was tainted by the courts decision to allow the Sheltons to introduce evidence concerning USAAs standards for payment of personal injury protection (PIP) benefits. We agree that the admission of this evidence was error, but, as we will explain, the error was harmless in this case. Accordingly, we affirm.
