Plaintiffs obtained a jury verdict for $10,-000 in actual and $25,000 in punitive damages for defendant’s alleged conversion of plaintiffs’ personal property removed from a building owned by defendant. The trial court set aside the verdict and entered judgment for defendant in accordance with its motion for directed verdict and in .the alternative, sustained defendant’s motion for a new trial. We affirm the judgment of the trial court granting defendant’s motion for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict because plaintiffs failed to make a submissible case.
