The court dismissed the plaintiff's claim for additional damages, ruling that the victim contributed to the loss expansion. The plaintiff argued the insurer failed to present specific rental car offer details, while the insurer contended the victim's actions exacerbated the situation. The court held that without concrete evidence of the missing offer, the victim's contribution justified reducing the compensation amount.
