Description
This commercial dispute arose between plaintiff Eduardo Gongora, appellant Playboy Enterprises, Inc. (PEI), and appellees Editorial Caballero, S.A. de C.V. (EC) and Grupo Siete International, Inc. (GSI). EC and GSI cross-claimed against PEI for fraud, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, business disparagement, tortious interference, and interference with prospective business relations. PEI cross-claimed against EC and GSI alleging, among other things, breach of contract and fraud. Immediately before closing arguments and over PEIs objection, the trial court realigned EC and GSI as plaintiffs. The jury found for EC and GSI and against PEI on all claims, except interference with prospective business relations, and awarded $3,600,000 for out-of-pocket expenses, $500,000 for liabilities incurred, and $260,000 for lost profits. The jury declined to award punitive damages. With respect to PEIs claims, the jury found that both EC and GSI had committed fraud and various contractual breaches, but that their actions were excused.
