If, however, the greater weight of the evidence supports [one or more of] (claimant’s) claim[s] [against [one] [or] [both] [more] of the defendants], then you shall consider the defense[s] raised by (defendant).
On the [first] defense, the issues for you to decide are whether (claimant) was negligent in relying on (defendant’s) statement; and, if so, whether such negligence was a contributing legal cause of any [loss] [injury] [or] [damage] sustained by (claimant).
