Description

We review the decision of the District Court of Appeal, Fourth District, in Robinson v. Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc., 447 So.2d 1003 (Fla. 4th DCA 1984), which expressly and directly conflicts with Baptist Memorial Hospital, Inc. v. Bell, 384 So.2d 145 (Fla. 1980), and Castlewood International Corp. v. LaFleur, 322 So.2d 520 (Fla. 1975). We hold that the district court properly reversed the trial courts order granting a directed verdict on punitive damages for Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc., that the district court erred in reversing the trial courts order granting remittitur or a new trial on the issue of punitive damages, and that the district court erred in disapproving the trial courts entering alternative orders, i.e., a directed verdict, and in the event of reversal, an order granting new trial or remittitur. We therefore approve in part and quash in part the decision of the Fourth District.
