  • holding that, although the defendant was liable for conversion, punitive damages were unjustified because of an absence of actual malice
  • holding that the movant satisfied the requirement by renewing the judgment “[o]n all the same bases,” without “tak[ing] the [c]ourt’s time to argue further”
  • holding that the denial of a requested jury instruction was not prejudicial error when, based on the findings of the jury, it would not have reached the issue embodied by the instruction
  • discussing that interplay in context of a claim for tortious interference allegedly caused by a breach of a contract in which both the plaintiff and the defendant were parties
  • finding that tortious interference with business relationships arises only out of the relationship between three parties — plaintiff, defendant, and the third party
  • noting that a plaintiff may show tortious interference “by showing that [defendant] used violence, intimidation, injurious falsehood or other fraud”
