Jacob Hartz Seed Co.9/25/2001
rp., 743 So. 2d 954, 971 (Miss. 1999). Referring to both may be the clearest explanation.
. Section 75-17-1(1) is authority for eight percent interest that begins no earlier than the date of damages and ends at judgment. Section 75-17-7 is authority for interest, set at a reasonable rate by the trial court, that begins no earlier than the filing of suit and continues post-judgment until paid. Perhaps for interest that a trial court decides to impose for some period during the pendency of the suit, either statute could be utilized.
McMILLIN, C.J., JOINS THIS SEPARATE OPINION.
