00-1138 Pangman, et al. v. King, et al.

Listen to this article

Richard King appeals judgments entered in favor of Mary Schmitt and William Pangman on their claims against King for conversion and misrepresentation. King’s complaints are that the damages awarded by the jury were improper because the jury miscalculated the proper measure of damages and duplicated certain damages, and that Pangman and Schmitt were not entitled to recover on a conversion theory because they did not have an “immediate possessory interest” in the shares of stock at issue. King also requests a new trial on the basis of two alleged errors committed by the trial court in its evidentiary rulings. Pangman and Schmitt cross-appeal, claiming the trial court should have granted additional, equitable relief in the form of a constructive trust.

We affirm the judgment as entered by the trial court.
