Description
Milan Express, Inc. ("Milan") appeals the district court's order vacating in part for lack of jurisdiction the jury's award of damages. The district court vacated the portion of the verdict awarding damages in excess of the amount of a Rule 56(c) bond posted to secure an injunction that had been wrongfully obtained by Averitt Express, Inc. ("Averitt").*fn1 The court ruled that its jurisdiction was limited only to Milan's claim for the specific amount of the bond and entered a final judgment upholding the jury's verdict for this amount. Averitt and U.S. Fidelity and Guaranty Co. ("USFG") cross-appeal from this final judgment, arguing that jurisdiction is likewise lacking over the claim on the bond. We affirm in part, and reverse and remand in part.
