This is an action brought by Frank J. Hudson, Jr., for compensatory and punitive damages as a result of an alleged beating with a bullwhip by defendant Jose U. Otero, while he and defendants, Jose M.

Hudson was forced to take off his clothes at the time of the whipping and claimed that $400 was stolen from his billfold while this was taking place.

Otero, and $1 compensatory damages and $500 punitive damages against Bobby Zamora. After a remittitur, which we will later discuss, the defendants appeal and Hudson cross-appeals.
