In separate but concurrent actions; can the consolidated judgements involving the same negligence be held jointly and does the court have the discretion to conjoinn the award?

You seem to have your terminology mixed up. Judgments are not held jointly - that term might apply to trials, hearings or appeals, but judgments are "rendered," not held."
Further, negligent acts can conjoin to produce a bad result, but awards are not conjoined - awards (judgments, etc.) can be joint, several, joint and several, etc., but not conjoined.
Finally, the question is under the wrong topic heading. Administrative law has to do with the law governing administrative tribunals like the Public Utilities Commission, the Board of Zoning Appeals, the labor Commissioner, etc. This sounds like a question regarding negligence litigation. |
