Appellant, for the personal injuries suffered, is entitled to compensation in the form of special damages which, as we have found and held above, he specially pleaded and strictly proved as well as general damages grantable at our discretion. However, given that he contributed to the occurrence of the accident as already observed above, we order that he is entitled to only 75% of the total amount awarded as special and general damages, the decretal sum shall attract an interest of 7% at the court's rate from the date of judgment to the date of its satisfaction in full.
