“. . In cases of this character a new trial will not be granted on the ground of excessive damages, unless they are so outrageous as to induce the belief that the jury acted from prejudice, partiality or corruption. . . .” See also, Snider v. Lewis (1971), 150 Ind. App. 30 , 276 N.E.2d 160 .”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““In the abstract, probable cause is a pure question of law, but its existence in a given case is a mixed question of law and fact, when one or more of the elementary facts thereof, relied upon is controverted. In such case the court must hypothetically state to the jury the material facts which the evidence tends to prove, and positively direct, as to the law, on the assumed state of facts. Where the facts are uncontroverted, the court must determine the existence or nonexistence of probable cause. . . .” (Citation omitted)”
