08/31/2010 ORAL ARGUMENT HELD
12/16/2010 ORDER-OTHER SUBSTANTIVE DY Respondent's Suggestion of Mootness is hereby denied.
12/16/2010 DISP-QUASHED & REMANDED For the reasons explained above, we answer the rephrased certified question in the affirmative. We conclude that a final judgment reserving jurisdiction to award prejudgment interest is a final appealable order but that the trial court does not lose jurisdiction to determine prejudgment interest in a manner similar to that in which the trial court addresses attorneys' fees and costs. We quash the decision of the district court and remand this case to the district court with directions to remand to trial court for a calculation and award of prejudgment interest in this case.
