Description
After arbitration of a personal injury claim, one party failed to file a proof of service along with his demand for trial de novo. We are asked to decide whether the other party may first raise the error after a jury has returned its verdict. We hold that the superior court never lost jurisdiction and the error was waived. We affirm. Taisha Cook sued David Von Stein and others (collectively "Von Stein") for personal injury damages resulting from a rear-end automobile accident. Cook appeals a jury award of zero dollars in damages asserting that because Von Stein failed to file a proof of service along with his trial demand, the superior court was without subject matter jurisdiction to conduct the trial de novo. Cook also urges, inter alia, that the jury verdict was contrary to the evidence.
