No. 4027.

621 S.E.2d 363

Jenny C. MISHOE, Respondent, v. QHG OF LAKE CITY, INC., Appellant.

Court of Appeals of South Carolina.

Decided October 3, 2005.

Rehearing Denied November 17, 2005.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charles E. Carpenter, Jr. and S. Elizabeth Brosnan, both of Columbia and Douglas C. Baxter, of Myrtle Beach, for Appellant.

Ronnie Alan Sabb and W.E. Jenkinson, III, both of Kingstree, for Respondent.

HEARN, C.J.

In this civil action, QHG of Lake City, Inc. appeals the award of $750,000 in actual damages and $1,250,000 in punitive damages in favor of Jenny C. Mishoe. QHG alleges a new trial should be granted as a result of an improper closing argument and the circuit court's erroneous restriction of the scope of QHG's cross-examination of Mishoe. Moreover, QHG argues the evidence does not support an award of punitive damages. We affirm.
