Sarah L. Swanson appeals the trial court’s order granting a new trial on damages after she rejected an additur in a personal injury lawsuit arising from an automobile accident. We affirm. However, because the jury found the plaintiff below, Lolita M. Beilman, did not sustain a permanent injury, the new trial shall be limited to economic damages only. See § 627.737(2), Fla. Stat. (2010).
AFFIRMED.
