Heading: Hunter's counterclaim

Text: 23 CEI also appeals from the verdict in favor of Hunter and denying it recovery on its indemnity counterclaim against SNI, claiming that the verdict was contrary to the preponderance of the evidence. CEI 'freely' admits, however, that 'this point is not in the league with points I and II (involving its liability for lost profits).' We agree. Viewed in the light most favorable to appellees, there is more than ample evidence in the record to support a jury finding that CEI undertook to pay Hunter for the extra work it performed and that such extra expenses as CEI incurred were in no way the responsibility of SNI. Accordingly, CEI's contentions with regard to the Hunter counterclaim and its indemnity counterclaim against SNI are without merit.
