John Diamond Iii v. Platinum Jaxx, Inc.

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the judgment against Platinum Jaxx, holding that Diamond could not pursue corporate veil piercing because he neither pleaded that theory nor joined the individual owners as parties. The court also upheld the exclusion of veil-piercing and reputation evidence and the allocation of costs according to the defendants' percentages of fault. It concluded that the superior court acted within its discretion in each challenged ruling.
