Zivku v. DeLuca
rship, P.J.P. Enterprises, Inc. (referred to here as Escondido Mitsubishi). After the sale closed, Zivku sued DeLuca for fraud, alleging that DeLuca affirmatively misrepresented and/or failed to disclose information relating to Escondido Mitsubishi's financial strength. After a trial, the jury returned a special verdict finding Zivku did not meet his burden to prove DeLuca made a "false representation of an important fact to Jon Zivku" or that DeLuca failed "to disclose an important fact that Jon Zivku did not know and could not reasonably have discovered." Based on this verdict, the court entered a defense judgment.
On appeal Zivku challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the jury's findings. We reject his contentions and affirm the judgment.
