URBIGKIT, Justice,
concurring in part and dissenting in part.
I concur in the decision of this court that the proof of damages was not sufficient to sustain the judgment entered by the trial court, but would remand the case for retrial on damages only. Liability is not now in issue. Likewise not questioned is the fact that some damages exist, and that appellant should be liable for actual damages.
Consequently, I would remand for retrial for determination of damages in consonance with the rules of law required by this court. Belle Fourche Pipeline Company v. Elmore Livestock Company, Wyo., 669 P.2d 505 (1983); Energy Transportation Systems, Inc. v. Mackey, Wyo., 650 P.2d 1152 (1982); Reynolds v. Tice, Wyo., 595 P.2d 1318 (1979). Cf. Anderson v. Bauer, Wyo., 681 P.2d 1316 (1984); and Adel v. Parkhurst, Wyo., 681 P.2d 886 (1984).
