1Opinion of the Court

HENLEY, Circuit Judge.

Appellant Allis-Chalmers Credit Corp. (Allis-Chalmers) seeks reversal of a judgment awarding appellee H. Ray Rogers compensatory damages of $35,000.00 in this diversity action for wrongful repossession of a crawler tractor so equipped as to be called a bulldozer. In brief, Allis-Chalmers contends (1) because insufficient evidence exists to support a finding of wrongful repossession, the district court 1 erred in refusing to direct a verdict against Rogers; and (2) insufficient evidence exists to support the award of damages. We affirm the judgment of the district court.
