Description
In Dunham v. Kampman, 37 Colo. App. 233, 547 P.2d 263 (1976), the court of appeals, in a well reasoned opinion, correctly disposed of the contentions of the parties. The court of appeals concluded that the comparative negligence statute, section 13-21-111, C.R.S. 1973 has no application where an innocent party seeks recovery from a party adjudged negligent and that liability of joint tort-feasors remains joint and several with respect to a third party injured by their actions. It therefore reversed the trial court and ordered that Mrs. Dunham be awarded the full amount of damages determined by the jury. In all other matters raised before it, the court of appeals affirmed the trial court. We expressly approve and adopt the opinion of the court of appeals and its treatment of this case.
