Welch v. Haase12/3/2003
juror confusion. As with the prior issue, voir dire indicated juror misconception concerning liability for alcohol on the property. Some jurors apparently believed that having alcohol present may have made a landowner liable as a matter of law. Considering the apparent misconceptions of the law and Welch's claims, this instruction was applicable and was not confusing.
. We finally observe that Welch has not contended that the verdict would have changed had either of the contested instructions not been given. In his brief to this Court, Welch merely contends that "there is simply no way to say with certainty why the jury found in favor of all four Defendants/Appellees." Because Welch fails to indicate how the verdict would have been favorable had instructions 15A and 15B not been given, we find no prejudicial error.
. Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded.
. GILBERTSON, Chief Justice, and SABERS, KONENKAMP, and MEIERHENRY, Justices, concur.
