Reasons
Judgment on the ground of appeal No. 1 by the Plaintiff Attorney
Upon review of the original judgment, the court below did not err in calculating the amount of intermediate interest calculated as actual damages, even though the court below did not deduct the intermediary interest as the damages determined at the time of the occurrence of the tort, even though the court below did not deduct the intermediary interest because it is recognized that the amount of temporary claim at the time of the accident would have reached the due date as the damages determined at the time of the occurrence of the tort, the court below did not err in calculating the amount of interim interest calculated as actual damages, and therefore there is a reasonable ground for appeal to discuss this point.
It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the remaining grounds of appeal.
