08/29/2003 ORAL ARGUMENT HELD
11/26/2003 DISP-QUASHED & REMANDED We answer the certified question in the affirmative as to economic damages. We hold that it is appropriate to set off against the economic damages portion of an award against one tortfeasor in a medical malpractice action the economic damages portion of any settlement recovered from a settling tortfeasor for the same incident causing the injury where the settling tortfeasor was not included on the verdict form. However, there should be no setoff for noneconomic damages. We quash the Second District Court of Appeal's ruling on the setoff issue, approve the court's ruling on the attorney's fees issue, and remand this case to the trial court for entry of a judgment consistent with this opinion.
