The conversion here was rather clearly proved. The question for the jury exclusively to determine is whether the conversion was malicious, Delong, supra, page 324[6], in the sense that it was the intentional doing of a wrongful act without just cause or excuse. Ross v. Holton, 640 S.W.2d 166 (Mo.App.1982). Appellants should have been allowed to submit their claim for punitive damages to the jury.
