Heading: Personal Liability of Pundzak.

Text: Cook and Webster complain that the court erred in not entering a judgment against Pundzak personally as well as against the corporation on their breach-of-contract claim. Pundzak claims first that Cook and Webster waived this argument: When Pundzak moved for a directed verdict on the contract claim as against him personally, Cook and Webster did not respond. The court sustained the motion and submitted the contract claim only as against Pundzak, Inc. The verdict forms submitted by the court clearly show that Cook and Webster's contract claims were submitted only against Pundzak, Inc., and no objection was made to the instructions. At a later time, Cook and Webster raised the theory that the corporation was the alter ego of Pundzak. However, they had not requested an instruction on this theory, nor did they object to the court's failure to instruct on it. We find no error in refusing to enter judgment against Pundzak personally on the breach-of-contract verdict.
