Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edwards, Sieh, Wiggins & Hathaway, by Charles K. Wiggins; Levinson, Friedman, Vhugen, Duggan & Bland, by Linda J. Dunn, Joel J. Delman, and Theodore R. Willhite, for petitioner.

MADSEN, J.

We granted plaintiff's petition for review of a Court of Appeals unpublished decision. The Court of Appeals held there was sufficient evidence to go to the jury, but reversed and ordered a new trial for error in the jury instructions. Defendant cross-petitioned regarding sufficiency of the evidence. We affirm on the cross petition and reverse on plaintiff's petition, thereby reinstating the judgment rendered on the verdict in favor of the plaintiff.
