Description

This is an action for damages for malicious prosecution. The action was brought by Cheryl Lewis against Ernest W. Williams and his employer, Commerce Union Bank. The underlying criminal prosecution involved the arrest of Miss Lewis on a warrant charging her with "forgery and/or passing forged papers." The warrant was issued at the request and upon the sworn testimony of Mr. Williams in his capacity as an investigator for the bank. Before a preliminary hearing was held, the charge against Miss Lewis was dismissed on motion of the state made at the request of employees of the bank. Miss Lewis then filed her action for damages, with the result that the jury awarded her compensatory damages of $5,000.00 and $20,000.00 as punitive damages. The trial court entered a judgment based on the jurys verdict.
