Citation:
Case Summary
This case involves a dispute over a contract for the sale of a business. Brandon Burrage sued Temara Beth Luna, alleging that she breached their agreement by failing to transfer certain assets and by interfering with his business operations after the sale. Luna counterclaimed, asserting that Burrage failed to make all the agreed-upon payments and that she was entitled to retain certain assets as a result. The appellate court reviewed the trial court's decision. The court found that there was sufficient evidence to support the jury's findings regarding the breach of contract by both parties. Specifically, the court affirmed the jury's award of damages to Burrage for Luna's failure to transfer assets, but it also upheld the jury's finding that Burrage had not fully paid Luna, which impacted the final judgment.
