A 4.80 General Verdict Form: One Plaintiff, Two Defendants, One Injury Case is a legal form used when a plaintiff has suffered a single injury due to the negligence of two defendants. The form requires the plaintiff to list each defendant and the damages caused by each. The jury is then asked to determine whether the plaintiff should be awarded damages from each defendant and, if so, how much. The form also includes instructions on how the jury should consider the evidence in their determination. There are two types of 4.80 General Verdict Forms: One Plaintiff, Two Defendants, One Injury Case: a single-injury verdict form and a multiple-injury verdict form. The single-injury verdict form is used when the plaintiff has suffered one injury due to the negligence of two defendants.
