Généré par l'IA

The dispute centered on whether certain actions by a defendant constituted conversion of property belonging to the plaintiff, with the trial court finding for the defendant based on the lack of explicit demand for return and the belief that the property was being held for eventual sale to the plaintiff. The appellate court determined that the defendant’s continued, unauthorized retention and use of the property after the plaintiff repudiated the arrangement and demanded its return was an unlawful exercise of dominion inconsistent with the plaintiff's rights, thus establishing conversion, and the trial court's reliance on the absence of a formal demand was reversible error.
