Sharp v. Kay
Defendant James A. Kay, Jr. (Kay) appeals from a judgment in favor of plaintiffs Bob R. Sharp (Sharp), Pat Pestka (Pestka), Manuel Bravo (Bravo), Vivian Engel (Engel) and Peggy Heathers (Heathers) in this malicious prosecution action. Kay contends the judgment must be reversed with directions to enter judgment in his favor because he was entitled to bring the underlying action, and he relied on the advice of counsel in bringing it. He additionally contends that if we do not find him entitled to judgment as a matter of law, the judgment must be reversed for a new trial due to the introduction of irrelevant and prejudicial evidence. Finally, he contends that, at a minimum, he is entitled to a new trial on the issue of damages. Court reject his contentions and affirm the judgment.
