Hutchins v. Hutchins

508 So. 2d 391, 12 Fla. L. Weekly 1069, 1987 Fla. App. LEXIS 7694

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

From the record we find evidence upon which the jury could have based its verdict for $30,000 compensatory damages on the appellee’s claim for malicious interference with a business relationship. However, the evidence is legally insufficient to support the $35,000 punitive damages verdict. On this appeal appellant does not question the sufficiency of the evidence as to the $20,-000 award for unlawful interception of a communication under the wiretapping statute (section 934.10, Florida Statutes (1985)). Accordingly, the final judgment is reduced to $50,000 and, as modified, is

AFFIRMED.
