All-Ways Logistics, Inc. v. USA Truck, Inc.
Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
BOWMAN, Circuit Judge.
This breach-of-contract case arises out of a commission agreement entered into by All-Ways Logistics, Inc., and USA Truck, Inc. Following a jury trial, the District Court 1 awarded All-Ways approximately $3 million on its breach-of-contract claims, as well as prejudgment interest and attorney fees. USA Truck appeals, arguing that the District Court erred by (1) failing to instruct the jury on an affirmative defense, (2) awarding prejudgment interest, and (3) awarding an unreasonable amount of attorney fees. We affirm.
