VKGS, LLC v. Planet Bingo, LLC
Annotate this Case
In this dispute between competitors in the bingo hall gaming industry that sued each other for breach of contract, the Supreme Court affirmed in part and reversed in part the judgment of the trial court, holding that the court should not have awarded postjudgment interest in favor of VKGS, LLC.
After a trial on VKGS's claims, the jury found Planet Bingo, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiary, Melange Computer Services, Inc. (together, Planet Bingo), liable for $558,405. After a separate trial on Planet Bingo's claims, the jury found VKGS liable for $2,990,000. The trial court awarded VKGS postjudgment interest from the time of the first verdict and then entered judgment in favor of Planet Bingo, while offsetting VKGS' award. The Supreme Court affirmed in part and reversed in part, holding that the district court (1) did not err in bifurcating trial of the parties' claims; (2) did not err in declining to dismiss Planet Bingo's claims, in refusing VKGS' evidence, or in declining to give VKGS' jury instructions; and (3) erred in awarding VKGS postjudgment interest.
