How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • reversing some but not all of plaintiff's claims and remanding for a new trial on punitive damages because each of the plaintiff's theories of liability \involve[d] different conduct\ and would therefore \support a different amount of punitive damages\
  • “In Dittmer, each theory submitted to the jury caused the plaintiff separate and distinct injuries.... Here, however, the same injury sustained all theories and we are satisfied that Dittmer does not bar the actual damage award.”
