Tori Shannon (Barnes) Cole v. Skin RN Aesthetics, LLC Et Al.

An employer called the police after finding company property in an employee’s purse.  The employee was arrested and charged with felony theft of property.  She was later acquitted.  After the acquittal, the employee sued her former employer for malicious prosecution.  A jury found the employer liable for malicious continuation of the criminal proceedings.  Because there is material evidence in the record to support the jury verdict, we affirm.
