than the combined tortious conduct of all other persons from whom the plaintiff seeks
recovery in this action and of all other persons from whom the plaintiff does not
seek recovery in this action. The court shall diminish any compensatory damages recoverable by the plaintiff by
an amount that is proportionately equal to the percentage of tortious conduct of the
