The dispute centered on a challenge to the application of a statute governing the calculation of damages in specific types of actions, where the trial court ruled that a statutory cap on damages applied to the total award, including prejudgment interest, despite the challenging party's argument that the cap should only apply to the underlying compensatory damages. The court reasoned that the statutory language explicitly directs that the cap limits the "judgment," which includes the final award incorporating both the damages found by the jury and the automatically calculated prejudgment interest, thus affirming the application of the cap to the entire final judgment amount.
