Description
This is an appeal by Boatmen's Bank of Butler from a judgment entered in favor of Allen B. and Shirley A. Berwald for $50,000
actual and $100,000 punitive damages on a counterclaim for prima facie tort in response to Boatmen's action to recover the
unpaid principal balance on a promissory note. In addition to the verdict in favor of the Berwalds, the jury returned a verdict
in favor of the Bank for the unpaid principal balance of the note. The Bank also appeals from the trial court's refusal to
amend the judgment in favor of the Bank to include interest and attorney's fees. Mr. and Mrs. Berwald were owners and operators of a Holstein dairy farm and herd located near Butler, Missouri. Mr. and Mrs.
Berwald borrowed money from the Butler State Bank, which became Boatmen's Bank of Butler, for the purpose of financing the
operation of their dairy farm. The credit arrangements commenced in February of 1984 and included various promissory notes
secured by deeds of trust and other collateral security agreements.
