409.12 Burden of Proof on Defense Issues If the greater weight of the evidence does not support (defendant)'s defense[s] and the greater weight of the evidence supports [one] [or] [more of] (claimant)'s claim[s], then your verdict should be for (claimant) in the total amount of [his] [her] [its] damages. However, if the greater weight of the evidence shows that both (claimant) and [(defendant)] [one or more of the defendants] were negligent and that the negligence of each contributed as a legal cause of [loss] [injury] [or] [damage] sustained by (claimant), you should determine what percentage of the total negligence of [both] [all] parties to this action was caused by each.
