The appeal is dismissed.

The costs of appeal are assessed against the Counterclaim Plaintiff.

The grounds of appeal are examined (to the extent of supplement in case of any statement in the supplemental appellate brief not timely filed).

Examining the record in light of the relevant legal principles, the lower court rejected the Plaintiff’s assertion that there was a permanent disability equivalent to 30% of the labor ability loss rate due to the instant accident, while limiting the liability of the counterclaim Defendant for the instant accident to 50% on account of various circumstances as indicated in its reasoning.

In so doing, contrary to the allegations in the grounds of appeal, there were no errors by recognizing facts against logical and empirical rules or by misapprehending the legal principles on the limitation of liability.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed, and the costs of appeal are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
