West Plains, LLC v. Retzlaff Grain Co. – Loss-of-value damages upheld despite survival of business
$225.00
Description
Abstract: In commercial tort claims, courts must decide how much damage the plaintiff suffered from the defendant’s alleged wrongdoing. This article summarizes a recent Eighth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals case that upheld a jury’s damages award based on lost market value, even though the business wasn’t completely destroyed. A sidebar highlights the benefits of hiring a separate financial expert to conduct a formal appraisal review. West Plains, LLC v. Retzlaff Grain Co., 870 F.3d 774, 8th Cir., August 30, 2017
