William P. Oconnor v. State Indiana

Defendant Miller Brewing Co. appeals the judgment of the Monroe Superior Court awarding plaintiff Best Beers of Bloomington, Inc. $397,000.00 in compensatory damages and $1,989,260.00 in punitive damages. We affirm the award of compensatory damages, and we affirm the judgment insofar as it finds Miller liable for punitive damages, but we reverse and remand for a new trial limited to a determination of the appropriate amount of punitive damages.
