    Court denied defendants' motion for reconsideration and a trial on damages in a wrongful death trial due to defense counsel's multiple failures to make timely objections on the record prior to the close of trial and prior to dismissing the jury. Although defendants raised multiple arguments regarding the weight of evidence presented at trial and the instructions delivered to the jury, the court noted that counsel failed to make these arguments and therefore failed to preserve the issues for appeal. Motions for reconsideration, denied.
