Abstract
This Article proposes a unified formula for calculating damages in complex, multiparty tort cases. While the formula is my own, it incorporates the available case law and rests on the judgments of New York's most prominent civil practice scholars where no judicial guidance exists. Perhaps the most convincing claim to legitimacy I can offer, however, is the fact that my methodology produces results consistent with the principles motivating the statutory provisions at issue.
