Supreme Court of Kansas, 1903

Shinn v. Spohn

Shinn v. Spohn
Supreme Court of Kansas · Decided April 11, 1903
66 Kan. 812; 72 P. 1101; 1903 Kan. LEXIS 193

Shinn v. Spohn

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam:

We have examined the record on the several points of error assigned, and conclude that the case was tried fairly. No error appears affecting the substantial rights of the defendant below. The instructions respecting the right to recover exemplary damages were in accordance with the decisions of this court. The evidence of good faith on the part of Shinn was properly held to go in mitigation-of punitive damages only. ( Garnier v. Squires, 62 Kan. 321, 62 Pac. 1005.)

The judgment of the district court will be affirmed.
