Description
Plaintiff appeals after the trial court, in a bench tried case, found against him on his civil conspiracy count and denied
him punitive damages for the non-payment of wages required by the Prevailing Wage Law, § 290.230, RSMo 1986. We
affirm in part and reverse and remand in part. This case arose out of plaintiff's employment by Warren Skinner, Inc. as a general laborer from 1984 to 1986. His petition
contained three counts. Count one alleged that the corporation had not paid the required wage and asked for an amount equal
to "double whatever difference there may be between the amount so paid and the rates provided by the contract together with
reasonable attorney's fees to be determined by the court." § 290.300, RSMo 1986. In addition, in this count he asked
for punitive damages. 1 Count two repeated the same allegations and asked for both actual and punitive damages against
Warren Skinner as an individual. Count three alleged the existence of a civil conspiracy with conspirators being the corporation,
Warren Skinner, Ella Skinner, and Mark Skinner. Again both actual and punitive damages were sought.
