BOOCHEVER, Chief Justice; OPINION This is an action by a trucking company against Teamsters Union Local 959 brought in the wake of a wildcat strike over unsafe working conditions. The plaintiff, Edwin W. King, d/b/a King Trucking Company, alleged breach of contract, tortious interference with prospective economic advantage, tortious property damage and intentional interference with contractual relationships. 1 A jury returned a verdict in favor of plaintiff King (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the employer) for $214,000.00 actual damages and $138,000.00 punitive damages. The award of actual damages was remitted to $30,000.00. The punitive damage award was not remitted, and the total judgment, including interest and costs, was $197,340.32. 2 An appeal and cross-appeal bring four distinct issues before the court. Teamsters Local 959 argues that: (1) under the union employer contract, the dispute should have been submitted to arbitration and (2) punitive damages should not have been awarded. King cross-appealed, arguing: (3) the trial court erred in quashing service of summons on the International Brotherhood of Teamsters as a second defendant and (4) the trial court should not have reduced the actual damage award by remittitur. 3
