## Opinion text

McGIVERIN, Justice
(concurring in result in part, dissenting in part).
I concur in the result of Division I of the majority opinion and would hold to what we said in Stewart v. Madison, 278 N.W.2d 284, 296 (Iowa 1979), that adoption of the comparative negligence theory is a matter which is better handled through the legislative process.
I dissent as to Division II for the reasons stated in the dissent by Justice Uhlenhopp in the present case.
LeGRAND, J., joins in this concurrence in result in part and dissent in part.
