Description
This is the second appeal by defendant insurer, after this court, in Wetherbee v. United Insurance Co. of America, 265 Cal. App. 2d 921 [71 Cal. Rptr. 764], affirmed the judgment in favor of plaintiff and directed a retrial as to the amount of punitive damages, which the jury had found to be $500,000. The insurer now contends that: 1) the trial court erred in its instructions to the jury and exclusion of certain proffered evidence; 2) the award of $200,000 punitive damages was excessive; and 3) it was deprived of a fair trial.
