““In order to justify a reversal on the ground of excessive damages, the amount of damages assessed must appear to be so outrageous as to impress the court as being motivated by passion, prejudice and partiality.... Reversal is not justified, however, if the amount of damages awarded is within the scope of the evidence before the court.””
