The plaintiff purports to brief her remaining nine claims in two and one-half pages.2 Each claim is based on the trial court’s failure to instruct the jury as per a specific request of the plaintiff. In one of the claims, the plaintiff incorrectly asserts that the trial court failed to instruct the jury that contributory negligence is not a defense to the plaintiffs absolute nuisance count. The trial court did in fact instruct the jury that “[i]f you find that the plaintiff has established that an absolute private nuisance existed by a preponderance of the evidence you will not consider the concepts of contributory or comparative negligence of the plaintiff relative to the claim of absolute private nuisance.” This claim, therefore, is obviously without merit.
