The S.C. Court of Appeals has rejected former Charleston Battery owner Eric Bowman’s bid to throw out a $4.6 million civil verdict against him after a jury found him liable for striking a man with a golf cart in a dispute six years ago over an unpaid Sullivan’s Island bar tab. In a July 8 opinion, the court affirmed a Charleston County jury’s award of more than $4.66 million to Wallace “B.J.” Crosby, which included roughly $1.86 million in actual damages and $2.8 million in punitive damages.
