Description
SELYA, Circuit Judge This factually and legally complicated case casts a shadow over the ownership of two of the Caribbean's finest resort hotels. The plaintiff, Paul Dopp, alleging breach of contract, sought money damages and other forms of redress. The jury returned a $2,000,000 verdict in his favor against a single defendant, Jay Pritzker. Later, the district court annulled a stock subscription agreement (the SSA), see Dopp v. HTP Corp., 755 F. Supp. 491 (D.P.R. 1991), but limited the annulment specifically to the plaintiff's shares. Id. at 501. The court denied the plaintiff's broader request, made pursuant to article 1077 of the Puerto Rico Civil Code, P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 31, § 3052 (1968), for resolution of the oral contract. See Dop p, 755 F. Supp. at 500. The various parties mount a total of ten appeals. Notwithstanding the paperwork blizzard, no one takes exception to the jury verdict on liability. Rather, the several appellants focus exclusively upon supposed flaws concerning the relief awarded and denied. After considering the parties' plethoric briefs and reviewing the voluminous record with care, we vacate the award of damages and the order of annulment and remand for further proceedings.
