Heading: whether costs asserted by prudential were proven with reasonable certainty.

Text: ¶ 21. Stewart argues that Prudential failed to introduce evidence of costs that met the requisite reasonable-certainty standard. This Court has found evidence to be unsatisfactory in proving damages because the evidence failed to prove the damages with reasonable certainty. Chevron Oil Co. v. Snellgrove, 253 Miss. 356, 367, 175 So.2d 471, 475 (1965), (citing State Highway Comm'n v. Brown, 176 Miss. 23, 168 So. 277 (1936)). ¶ 22. Absent the previously discussed period in which Prudential maintained the unnecessary portion of the second bond, we find that Prudential has proven its damages with reasonable certainty. Prudential has provided numerous invoices, copies of returned checks, invoices, and affidavits authenticating the invoices, which sufficiently evidence its costs. This issue is without merit.
