A motorcyclist in Missouri is injured in a collision with a car. A jury finds the motorcyclist 60% at fault and the driver 40% at fault, and assesses total damages of $100,000. Under Missouri's comparative-fault doctrine, how much may the motorcyclist recover?

Nothing, because the motorcyclist was more than 50% at fault $$40,000, the portion of damages attributable to the driver's fault $$100,000, because Missouri does not reduce damages for plaintiff fault $$50,000, an equitable split between the parties

Correct Answer:

$$40,000, the portion of damages attributable to the driver's fault
